  • Starred Review [A] book that will guide history teachers and music teachers in showing high school students how music fits into the history of America....Topics covered by the book include folk music, lullabies, the blues, spirituals, cowboy songs, jazz, and rock. Our history and music teachers will be fascinated ang excited by the book. Highly Recommended.
