The author, well-versed in gypsy lore, explains how the gypsies work with the tarot, as well as the fascinating historical origins of the tarot. Golowin presents an interesting and convincing argument that the tarot was actually brought from India into Western and Eastern Europe during the course of various gypsy migrations. Golowin then provides detailed descriptions of the major and minor arcana from the gypsy viewpoint, and explains how to do a reading.
