"An examination of the indigenous, African, and European musical heritages, with the resulting retention and 'creolization,' of the Caribbean nations of Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Haiti (and the French Caribbean), Jamaica, Trinidad, and the East Indians population. A discussion of musical styles and forms reveals the universality and diversity, ethnicity, and impact on North America of this continent of islands. Particularly valuable is a glossary of musical terms used throughout the Caribbean"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
