Secrets of the Waite-Smith Tarot, by Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin, is a well touted book for tarot readers and those with an interest in the inner workings of the tarot.
The Rider-Waite-Smith tarot are the best tarot deck to learn from and the symbolism especially is highly important in the learning journey. In this book, there are insights into the design process that will fascinate you in their details and even I have found little things that surprised me.
I do recommend you shop around for a good price for the book as you can find the price does vary greatly.
Amazon Australia are selling it for $62 as of today, in paperback. The kindle version is $42 if you prefer that format. The Nile books are selling it for $55.20, normally they are quite cheap but you need to compare prices before buying books as there can be sudden sales online.
Booktopia are selling this for $52.75 and eBay Australia are selling it for $47.95. Fishpond are selling it for $40.81 but it ships from the US. Also check where it ships from as the price can be high for shipping if it’s from overseas. Even Big W market place is selling this for $63.49 and $7 postage.
My suggestion is google the title and authors and see what shows up on the search results. There is a Booktopia discount in the search results that offers a discount via Amazon. This is the one that I used and the book arrived the next day.
Golden rule is never lend your books to anyone, they have a habit of never returning to you. A lesson that I learned years ago. People don’t respect others property so be warned, act in haste and repent at leisure.
Happy book hunting and tarot reading everyone.
Warm and fuzzy hugs 🤗
