The Book of Salsa

Salsa is one of the most popular types of music listened to and danced to in the United States. Until now, the single comprehensive history of the music--and the industry that grew up around it, including musicians, performances, styles, movements, and production--was available only in Spanish. This lively translation provides for English-reading and music-loving fans the chance to enjoy Cesar Miguel Rondon's celebrated ###El libro de la salsa#. For this first English-language edition, Rondon has added a new chapter to bring the story of salsa up to the present.
