One Love, Ghoema Beat: Inside the Cape Town Carnival - Reconsiderations in Southern African History
John Edwin Mason
Takes readers behind the scenes of one of the world's least known and most colourful carnivals. Similar in many ways to Mardi Gras in New Orleans and Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, the Cape Town Carnival is unique in its history, which is rooted in South Africa's troubled past, and in its music, which is propelled by the mesmerizing ghoema beat.
