Book Reviews of The First Rasta: Leonard Howell and the Rise of Rastafarianism
Book Review: Good Intent, Needs Editing
Summary: 3 Stars
I expected more from someone with Helen Lee's experience in Journalism. The book gives little actual information, and focuses instead on rambling conjecture. Though I respect the intent and agree with many of the sentiments, the structure of the book is poor and unfocused. I would recommend this book only as the most basic of introductions to rastafarianism; for anyone who knows even a little, I would suggest you look elsewhere to enhance your knowledge base.
