Publisher's Summary

Hoodoo is an eclectic blend of African traditions, Native American herbalism, Judeo-Christian ritual, and magical healing. Tracing Hoodoo's magical roots back to West Africa, author Stephanie Rose Bird provides a fascinating history of this nature-based healing tradition and gives practical advice for applying Hoodoo magic to everyday life. Learn how sticks, stones, roots, and bones—the basic ingredients in a Hoodoo mojo bag—can be used to bless the home, find a mate, invoke wealth, offer protection, and improve your health and happiness.

Sticks, Stones, Roots and Bones is the 2005 Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR) Winner for Best General Interest Book! Masterfully read by L. Malaika Cooper; listen to more of Cooper's narration on other Stephanie Rose Bird titles, including 365 Days of Hoodoo: Daily Rootwork, Mojo and Conjuration.

Critic Reviews

"...[I]n Sticks, Stones, Roots and Bones: Hoodoo, Mojo and Conjuring With Herbs, Stephanie Rose Bird, the talented author, healer, and artist who inherited her family's way with roots and spirits offers a deep, sumptuous new guide to hoodoo's true origins, philosophy, ethics, tools, and techniques. Worth reading if just to learn more about Afro-Atlantic culture." (Village Voice)

"With humor and a positive outlook, Bird does a convincing job of inspiring the reader to rediscover life's magic through a connection with the natural world. In addition to providing plenty of useful and easy-to-follow recipes for making a 'mojo,' or trick bag, Bird shares her boundless enthusiasm and respect for the power of Hoodoo. Her book...shares a rich piece of American history that often goes untold." (Herb Quarterly)
