From its humble beginnings as a way to pass the time in the Appalachian Mountains to international acclaim and one of the most popular genres of music today, country music has a long and varied history. It is the base of most of the music we listen to today. Country Music will take you on a journey through nearly a hundred years of this genre, showing how it touches the hearts of people everywhere. The Evolution & Cultural Influences of Music series examines the history and development of popular musical genres. Books in this series provide young readers with a greater understanding of each musical genre, and how it has contributed to and shaped American popular culture over the past half-century.
