What about a book section in R-A

Post by ton1 »

Whatever the language... roots-archives era only :)

Would be a good mean to share knowledges because some books are a bit forgotten, "Jah revenge, Babylon revisited" for instance.

There are lots of works by authors and photographers which are worth knowing, i'm thinking about Chris Salewicz, Adrian Boot, Helene Lee, Lloyd Bradley, Michael de Koningh, Dave Thompson, Steve Barrow, Stephen Davis among others.

Just a proposal :)

Gosh !!
Though there are some books only about Rastafari and I'm not into it, I didn't think there were so many books about reggae. I have a bunch of them yet and i'm lucky enough to read both french and english (which is fine as there are interesting books written in french) but I see there are many many more. Great !
Thanks for the link picaraza !
