In the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans, Ronald W. Lewis has assembled a museum to the various worlds he inhabits. Built in 2003, the House of Dance & Feathers represents many New Orleans societies: Mardi Gras Indians, Social Aid and Pleasure Clubs, Bone Gangs, and Parade Krewes. More than just a catalogue of the artifacts in the museum, this full-color book is a detailed map of these worlds as experienced by Ronald W. Lewis. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

This book helps me understand how he was able to convince folks, and why people came to him for convincing. The stories, photos and soul in this book, and the care with which it was put together: Amazing. It's so hard to explain to people what New Orleans and Second Lines and Mardi Gras mean, now I have an amazing tool to help in my explaining.
Inspirational on a deep level, educational even to folks who know NOLA well, fun to read, and full of gorgeous photos. Every American should own a copy. Made me cry.
