520    The Big Drum is the lively ancient dance rite of the small
       island of Carriacou, Grenada. This book introduces 129 of 
       the ceremonial song texts and dances that call and 
       entertain the ancestors who are central to Carriacou 
       religious experience. McDaniel, who lived in Carriacou at 
       the time of the 1983 invasion of Grenada, frequently 
       observed Big Drum dances and interviewed many "old heads" 
       (wise people) for this book. She concludes it with an 
       analysis of a single calypso that memorializes the 
       invasion and illustrates the history-keeping function of 
       the calypso and Big Drum. She uncovers a structural 
       relationship between ancient praisesongs and modern 
       political songs and suggests the continuing impact of 
       music on the memory of Caribbean people.
