Rating:  Summary: A very good book Review: I do recommend this nice book to all those engaged in the practice of the Yoruba cult. The author gives a good persp- ective of what is behind the cerimony. Mo juba Iyami Osoronga!
Rating:  Summary: Worth reading for student & practitioners of Yoruba religion Review: This is a fairly good book on the subject of Yoruba masks and drumming. Contains good pictures of masks (Gelede) and is very informative with regards to ceremonies performed at the Gelede. Is recommended reading for any of the followers of the Yoruba religion and to students as well. I would have liked to have seen a more in depth review of the ceremonies and religious aspects of the Gelede, therefore I have not rated it a 5 Star. Nonetheless, I would still read it all over again !
