For those who don’t know Stephen Foehr, he is a travel writer who has been to many places across the globe, some of these places where many of us would never venture. He is not a Jamaican but his book captured the essence of the Jamaican culture seen through his eyes as he journey into the places not typically visited by tourist. </p> <p>The Jamaican culture is often misunderstood by many foreigners with limited knowledge of its origin. However, Stephen provide a vivid explanation of how the current musical strings were stitched together to form Reggae and dancehall. There are few cases where a writer is able to convey such deep cultural connection. The book is easy to read for those who are attracted to the Jamaican culture and will leave a burning desire to visit the land of Reggae for those who have never set foot on the rock.</p> Articles http://bigculture.com/jamaican-warriors-reggae-roots-and-culture#comments Books Jamaican Culture Wed, 04 Jul 2007 21:40:41 -0500 robert 334 at http://bigculture.com
