Insightful,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Legends Of Santeria (World Religion & Magic) (Paperback)
I was a bit surprised when I received this book because I have seen a different cover for many years, however, once I opened it's pages I realized it was the same book with tons and tons of insightful stories and anecdotes. If you are an outsider than you must know that the insiders keep many well-guarded secrets. This book lets you in and shows the beauty and complexity of the Yoruba history and culture!
