Reviews

'Joseph Webster here confirms his reputation as an anthropologist of the hidden orders of power, prophecy, and secrecy that lie behind the everyday world. The religion of Orange politics is a timely reminder that religion, politics, and nationalism are intertwined in our identities in complex historic knots. Above all, it is a book about people, in all their flawed and noble humanity.' David G. Robertson, The Open University -- .

Robertson, The Open University 'Joseph Webster's fascinating book is the most insightful, balanced and convincing study of the Orange Order in modern Scotland yet published. It deserves a wide readership.' Sir Tom Devine, University of Edinburgh -- .
