Mambo Racine Sans Bout:
Do you have any leads to print sources you know of for this information--not
"proof" because I think such a thingas "proof" never really exists--but any
printed sources, whether current or from the 1980s or 1950s? I would deeply
appreciate any leads you can help with.
Thanks
Karen
