7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. The Real DealBy Katrina RasboldKatrina Hazzard-Donald is the "go-to" authority for information on true Black Belt Hoodoo. I am one of the marketeers the author mentions who owns a botánica and although my initial training is in Louisiana/New Orleans HooDoo it; my spirit demanded a different approach and practice. It is my ambition to honor the truest origins of the products I carry and use to help others. "Mojo Workin'" is one of the many books I read for reference so I can provide accurate information to my clients and correct the many misconceptions that are rampant in this field. Hazard-Donald's lucid and direct writing clears the mud created by those who insist on campaigning onto an existing tradition and calling it their own. For any American rootworker to walk with dignity and integrity through their craft;they need the information contained in the pages of this book. Although written from an academic perspective; the author created a page-turner that is compelling and rings with a clear peal of authenticity that cannot be denied. I am grateful every day for this book and recommend it highly; before any other book on authentic HooDoo history.9 of 9 people found the following review helpful.
