Dear Professor Price, I have bought your book and enjoy it very much! I am researching mémoires of dancers and you mention one by la Reine Pomaré and one by Rose Pompon but I can’t find reference to them and I wonder if you might have a lead?

Dear Professor Gargano
Not sure if I replied to your message, but unfortunately I only have secondary sources for these memoirs. Rigolboche’s memoirs, which I have seen, were written by two journalists. The lady herself no doubt approved because she liked the publicity, so it may have been the same with Pomaré and Rose Pompon.
Good luck with your search. Please let me know if you do trace them.
