Carolyn...thanks for the explanation. Can't wait for the new book to come out! I really admire your thorough research and loved your Madam Laveau book. It was so refreshing to read stuff about her based on fact. She lived across the street from my GGGGrandmother, Marie Louise Constant, so it also gave me a good "picture" of the neighborhood. I've read it at least 3 times and have leant it to friends and relavtives. After reading it while visiting this winter, my Mom got a copy for my sister.
