As much if not more about west African religious practices as secret societies,
By Cwn_Annwn (Copenhagen, Denmark) - See all my reviews
This review is from: West African Secret Societies (Paperback)
Written and researched in the 1920's this book is as much or more about the Pagan religions and folk customs of various west African tribes as it is about any secret societies that exist in those cultures. I always have to laugh when I read these books about "secret" societies whether it be about Freemasons or some tribal group in west Africa because just how secret are they if for one you even know that they exist, but for another most of the time all you have to do is dig up the right books and you can learn most of their so called "secrets" and this book has plenty of that although most of it is an overlap to the African Pagan religions and their rituals/beliefs. I would highly recomend this to the person researching African religion, not so much to the conspiracy researcher who might be drawn in by the title of the book.
