Book Reviews of Queens of Havana: The Amazing Adventures of Anacaona, Cuba's Legendary All-Girl Dance Band
Book Review: Can't put it down!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a must read for anyone who is into the music and history of one of Cuba's most magical periods. The Castro sisters' music, energy and adventures are incredible. They went through time with some of the best that we also know; son musicians such as the Buena Vista Social Club members, Omara Portuondo, and many other Cuban greats, as well as jazz superstars from all over the world. What a treasure to have Alicia Castro record these memories!
