British journalist John Masouri has always had 'so much things to say' about Reggae, he put it ALL in one big book about every artist song, producer, event and story of the historic Reggae Seventies in Jamaica and the world. "A must-have reggae Bible" says Alex Wheatle. I agree.

Glad to know that this stupid, hate-filled crime has been erased from sight. The Jamaican, Caribbean and African women inspired by Mary Seacole will continue to give unselfish service to Britain's sick, despite continuing racism.
