Four authors contributed to this book: Rev. Michael J Dangler, an ADF Senior Priest; Rev. Kirk Thomas, an ADF Senior Priest and Archdruid of ADF; Rev. James "Seamus" Dillard, an ADF Priest; and Melissa "Missy" Burchfield, an ADF Master Bard. Each brings their own unique perspectives on public ritual gained from years of practice and hard work, both on the public and the private side of Druidry.
