Book Synopsis
In western scholarship, Africa's so-called sacred forests are often treated as the remains of primeval forests, ethnographic curiosities, or cultural relics from a static precolonial past. This book challenges dominant views of these landscape features by redefining the subject matter beyond the compelling yet uninformative term "sacred."
