I would have to say that I really enjoyed this book. Although it is dated (being written in 1971) it does give a very basic view into the faiths in Brazil. He gets things going with some history which is essential to understanding how Candomble. Then goes into a very nice history of Allen Kardec and his Spiritist movement (which is super large in Brazil). Then he goes into Umbanda and Quimbanda. Now even though he doesn't create a onestop book on these faiths he really gives a great basic understanding. Furthermore all through the book he has his own personal experiences and adventures in Brazil as well as interviews and oneshots of famous persons in the movements. Well worth the time spent reading it.… (plus d'informations)

3343. The Devil Rocked Her Cradle, by David St. Clair (read Sept 3, 2000) This book tells the story of the Earling, Iowa, exorcism, which occurred in Earling about the time I was born three miles from Earling. It uses Begone Satan as its primary source but expands on it, and obviously uses imagination to do so. It is not very carefully researched, but since it has so much personal interest for me I found it compelling reading.
