A Host of Devils provides an in-depth account of the background; origin and development of the spirit figure sculptures which emerged during colonial times among the Makonde people of Mozambique.The creation of such works is shown to connect with a regional system of knowledge and practice; within which spirits function as a format for expression. The book describes the ways in which the sculpture emerged; as well as the authors experience of learning how to carve.
