Description: A biography on Mary Ellen Pleasant with the latest research on her mentor, Marie Laveau. The book also details their much-misunderstood, indigenous faith, Vodou. Thus, Heritage of Power, centered on Pleasant's life and how it she became the Mother of Civil Rights in California, solves three sets of mysteries: those about Pleasant, LaVeau, and Vodou. Heritage of Power contains landmark research, so you can now know the latest about all three.

Other Details: A beautifully illustrated coffee-table book, Heritage of Power is a fascinating read for those looking to learn more about the Spiritual and Social legacies of Marie Laveau and Mary Ellen Pleasant. Did the mysterious Mary Pleasant meet New Orleans' most famous Voodoo queen, Mam'zelle Marie Laveau? Did she receive a "Heritage of Power" from her? If so, what was it and what was its source?

Value: Heritage of Power is the first to establish the connection between Pleasant and Laveau and to reveal the social model forged by Marie Laveau. It fully demystifies the lives of both women and their religion, and explains how Pleasant took what she gained in New Orleans and applied it in California.
