My favorite books are;
* Beth Lessers book on King Jammy
* Tero Kaskis and Pekka Vuorinens book on the volcano posse called Reggae Inna Dance Hall Style
* Ray Hurford (and others) More Axe.

All books have been released either solely by or in affiliation with the likkle Finnish publisher Black Star. Really rated books!

A special mentioning should also go to Penny Reels book about Dennis Brown (which is still available for a great price if you contact the author!). It's called Deep Down With Dennis Brown.

Otherwise I can also join in on the praising of Rough Guide to Reggae which I think is a fantastic book for anyone that has just gotten in to reggae.

hey, i'm still searching for "Reggae Inna Dance Hall Style".. do you know a vendor/people who has some prints left to sell? does it exist online (pdf)? need it badly!

I've got a spare copy in mint condition. Do you have any interesting albums to trade for? Send me an e-mail at kalcidis _at_ hotmail _dot_ com

the kebra negast or aka the rasta bible ... not rasta but i recomend "how to eat to live" by elijah muhammed, its a brown paper back, for anybody either white or black.

WOW...great list of books to get to. Right now, I'm reading books like "LEFT TO TELL", Palestine: PEACE NOT APARTHEID, by Jimmy Carter and also "A LONG WAY GONE" Memoirs of a Boy Solider by Ishmael Beah~
Glad to look forward to some "lighter" reading...all this killing, and war giving me a headache....
