- Summary
- "The book reminds the Ègbá of the role of the Rock in their long, tedious and perilous struggle to remain Ègbá. For this role, the author ascribes a soul to the Rock and feminizes it. But she has not always been accorded the recognition due to such a protective mother. As an iconic monument, a lot has to be done to make her a viable tourist destination. To make climbing a memorable experience, complementary side attractions need to be put in place."--Back cover.
