Wake People Wake is a socio-anthropological study of the wake and waking habits that early Tobago folk practised while engaging in their funerary rites. The study not only deals with these people and their rituals; it also presents a perspective of the way other tribes, and early peoples worldwide, dealt with the death condition and and the here-after, and the way superstition and the supernatural constantly played a part in their responses.
This book is published to mark the author’s fifty years of cultural investigations, and for posterity.
