As the fastest growing African-based religion in the United States, SanterÃa has stimulated many publications, but none prior to this book noted the special significance of its art and artists. In SanterÃa Garments and Altars, two distinguished folklorists and practitioners of the faith focus upon the artistry of garments and altars that are intrinsic to the worship.
