The author uses photographs, interviews and biographical profiles to provide an insider's look at the schooling, customs, demands and discipline of country music - an art form that Tichi maintains is emphatically part of mainstream American culture. |
| Synopsis: |
What does the "country" in country music mean? Most interpret country as a regional or folk music that belongs to people in the hills and in honky-tonks, but Cecelia Tichi argues that it is in fact a national music form, one that belongs to all Americans. Illustrated with photographs of country music artists and images of American art, "High Lonesome" uses interviews and biographical profiles to provide an insider's look at the schooling, customs, demands and discipline of country music - an art form that Tichi maintains is emphatically part of mainstream American culture. |
