The Holy Piby is a short book, reprinted from the original publication of many decades ago. It is reputed to be the basis for Rastafarian beliefs in that it speaks of prophecies and revelations connected to the repatriation of all Africans to their original continent, manifested as "Ethiopia". What I found remarkable in the content of the text is that the story begins neither in Africa or Jamaica, but in Patterson NJ, where racism and economic difficulties in the 1920s and 30s created a fertile environment for the hopes of "negroes" to attain complete civil rights. This book was written prior to the coronation of Prince Ras Tafari, who took the imperial name of Heile Selassi when he ascended the throne of Ethiopia. This is seen as the fulfilment of one of the three key prophecies in the Holy Piby.The Holy Piby's language and scholarship is unequal to other holy writings, deficient in grammar and narrative thought. Nevertheless it is a very valuable instrument in examining the aspirations and origination of Rasta.

Very happy with this purchase. It's a small book, but packed with important information.
Excellent read!
If you don't believe in a higher power then this book might help you to think more about it. But everyone don't see eye to eye so you might still be a non- believer
This was an interesting book. Very insightful for those of you wanting to know more about rasta history and guide lines.
I purchased this book for a friend who is a very serious
Rastafarian. He just loves the book, and has read it again and again the first week he received it. I cannot recommend it for a non-Rastafarian.
It gives you an understanding of why Rasta came about. It shows why Rasta has its morals and ideologies, it was outlawed in Jamaica possibly due to how it can change your perspective on some things. It mentions Marcus Garvey as an apostle. if you're looking for a book to be a source to write a report this may not be the book for you, but if you're a Rasta or person interested in Rasta.
Excellent read
