"Salsa, the sexy dance music of the Spanish-speaking world, is making its way into the lives of millions around the globe. But the term "salsa" actually describes a multitude of different Latin music styles, including son, guaracha, mambe, rumba, merengne, and Latin jazz. Musica tells the story of salsa's origins and charts its journey from Cuba to New York's barrio, Miami Beach, and beyond."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence

"FOR THOUSANDS of American tourists in the decades between Prohibition and the Cuban revolution of 1959, entering the narrow port of Havana must have been like passing through the gates of heaven."
