E. L. Masters, The Cradle of Erotica: A Study of Afro-Asian Sexual Expression & an Analysis of Erotic Freedom in Social Relationships; New York: The Julian Press, 1963 (L/C CC No. 62-121126) (362 pp.; bibliography). This book is not for the squeamish in sexual matters, or for those who take any offense at racial bigotry and stereotyping, but it details matters that I have not seen presented elsewhere. It draws heavily on Arabic, Indian and European sources not generally available to most readers. "Dh' aindeoin co theireadh e!"
