Griots and Griottes: Masters of Words and Music
Thomas A. Hale
Alex Haley's "Roots" introduced griots to the world outside of West Africa and generated an enormous amount of interest in their profession. This work is a comprehensive portrait of the world of this uniquely African profession, starting with their discovery by the outside world in 1352 by a North African traveller, Ibn Battuta.
