Haitian Vodou: An Introduction to Haiti’s Indigenous Spiritual Tradition by Mambo Chita Tann

Mambo Chita Tann introduces Haitian Vodou through its historical setting, beliefs and ceremonial practices. Discussions of the lwas, altars and initiation place the religion within Haiti’s cultural and political development.

The book offers an entry point to a living spiritual tradition rather than treating Vodou as a synonym for fictional horror magic or Wicca. It is an introduction to religious life and practice, not a substitute for the guidance of an established community.
