Another really good book about Haitian Voodoo is called Mama Lola. I don't remember who wrote it but I'm sure that's the title. I used to have a scanned copy that I had to read for school, but my external hard drive self-destructed before I got it submitted. Unfortunately. It was an interesting read though.

This was the request, and I have tried searching for Marie Leveaux and I can't find any books about her. It's not a subject with which I am familiar. I tried Amazon but I don't really know what I'm looking for, so I suggested she try the accesible site at Amazon. But if anyone can find titles, that would be really appreciated. Here is the request: Hey, when someone gets a chance I would love a good book, or 2, about Voodoo and also one on Marie Leveaux (also sprlled Leveau and she's called the voodoo queen). Voodun, thre african r;elgion it stems from would be a second choice, but I know there are good factual books out there on Voodoo, but bookshare doesn't hve any. No ruish, just a request. Thsanks!
