This very methodical recitation of the facts and many fictions about its subject is less of a history than a catalog and hence reads very woodenly. It suffers from the lack of information available directly connected to Marie Laveau, but does admirable work using other sources to try to reconstruct what might have been -- which is clearly distinguished from what we know. Readers hoping to learn the "truth" will be disappointed; as many questions remain as are answered.
