Default the Csango country: a black hole in the guidebooks

I have been trying to find out something about the Csango region of
Romania (a small part of northern Moldavia which has been ethnically
Hungarian since the 18th century and still preserves some archaic
features of Hungarian culture, in particular some interesting music).
It seems to be unknown to any recent guidebook. Anybody know a source
that describes it properly, with features named in both Hungarian and
Romanian?
