In this book, Katrina Hazzard-Donald explores African Americans' experience and practice of the herbal, healing folk belief tradition known as Hoodoo. Working against conventional scholarship, Hazzard-Donald argues that Hoodoo emerged first in three distinct regions she calls "regional Hoodoo clusters" and that after the turn of the 19th century, Hoodoo took on a national rather than regional profile.

When is a story more than just a story? When does it become a myth? When it holds a piece of truth about our history, our morality, and the cosmos. Throughout history, humankind has used stories to explain the unknown. From the cycle of the moon to the changing of the seasons, tales about supernatural beings and events have served to account for the purpose of the cosmos. But mythology isn’t entirely fiction. These stories have been passed down for generations for a reason.

Story
At the beginning of his career, Joseph Campbell developed a lasting fascination with the cultures of the Far East, and explorations of Buddhist and Hindu philosophy later became recurring motifs in his vast body of work. However, Campbell had to wait until middle age to visit the lands that inspired him so deeply. In 1954, he took a sabbatical from his teaching position and embarked on a year-long voyage through India, Thailand, Cambodia, Burma, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and finally Japan.

Explore the Captivating History and Mythology of the Aztec!
Nothing remains of the ancient Mesoamerican civilization who called themselves the Mexica, better known to us as the Aztecs. Nothing except for their remarkable story. In this audiobook, we discuss their enigmatic origins and how the Aztecs rose from nomadic tribes to the dominant power in Mesoamerica at an astounding speed. You’ll wander the streets of their great capital city of Tenochtitlán, known as “the Venice of the New World” among the Spanish Conquistadors, who spread the term all over Europe. You’ll discover the full extent of the city’s splendour, visiting its many market stalls, smelling fresh chocolate and vanilla pods. You’ll indulge in a taste of ripe, hand-picked avocados and freshly baked corn tortillas, as you decipher Náhuatl, the language spoken by the 50,000 merchants who visited Tenochtitlán every day.

Story
Though the world came to know of the Norse and their legends through Roman interaction at about the time of Christ, most of what we came to know were handed-down from folk tales gathered by native writers like Snorri Sturluson (c. 1179 - 1241). This was from a time when the Norse had already been converted to Christianity.

Get to know the Greek gods and goddesses, from the mighty Zeus, to the temperamental Poseidon, the beautiful Aphrodite, and every character from A to Z. Who wouldn’t want to hear about Zeus and his command of lightning, Hades and how he found his bride, the wisdom of Athena, and so many other stories that capture the imagination. These stories can do more than just entertain; they can also inspire and teach us lessons that were penned by the Greeks themselves.

Bad Performance
Some general good information. Though as an olorisha I found some information to be not all together accurate. The reading could have been better and the pronunciation of Lukumi names and phrases was atrocious.

Good for beginner introduction but....
If you are looking for more in depth knowledge on Lucumi, this is not where you will find it. It gives a good general knowledge if you do not know anything at all. Surface level. With that being said, the person reading is BUTCHERING words left and right. She doesn't even pronounce "Lucumi" correctly. It was really rough making it through this book because of the complete butchering of words. Even the word "Gris-gris" was pronounced wrong even while acknowledging it was a French word. If they could just have the person reading, do a bit of research on pronunciation maybe this could get 4/5.

The worst narrarator i've heard!
The narrator sounds like she's reading for an audience of totlers. She single handedly rained this book which I would have at least given it a 3 stars rating. I hope Amazon or the authors chose the narators wisely!

Great info Performance is terrible!
Way to make an interesting subject and make it simply annoying and hard to listen to,
I had a very hard time listening because of the tone used narrating it. What was that?? were you thinking you were talking to a 3 year old?? wow!! just wow!!! I almost feel offended that anyone would think this is even appropriate tone to use on an audible, whoever made that executive decision should be fired and the lady narrating should simply stop!!
