Voodoo Tales As Told Among The Negroes Of The Southwest is a book that contains a collection of stories about voodoo as it is practiced among African Americans in the southwestern United States. The stories were collected by Mary Alicia Owen from original sources and are presented in their original form, with an introduction and notes by the author. The book includes stories about the origins of voodoo, the practices and beliefs associated with it, and the supernatural beings and events that are said to be part of this mysterious religion. The tales are rich in detail and provide a fascinating glimpse into the world of voodoo as it is practiced in the American South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
