| Summary |
Recent years have seen a growing popular fascination with so-called 'earth energies' associated with sacred or powerful places. Two such locations are Glastonbury, England, and Sedona, Arizona, each luring tens of thousands of pilgrims annually, and spawning growing communities of New Age devotees. In this richly textured account, AdrianIvakhiv focuses on the activities of these pilgrim-migrants, both spiritual and political. |
