Synopsis

Expand your country knowledge with Country Music Icons, dedicated to legends of the genre, both old and new.

From its roots in the southern Appalachian mountains, what we know today of country grew from a distinctive mix of folk, blues, bluegrass and more to become one of the defining genres of American music. Country has evolved over multiple generations of artists, but the importance of storytelling has remained at its heart for some 100 years.

This book celebrates the work of some of the genre's greatest storytellers, whose songs have stood the test of time and whose influence can be felt to this day. Discover the stories of the many kings and queens of country, from innovators like Jimmie Rodgers and Hank Williams to chart-topping legends like Dolly Parton and Shania Twain. Alongside these icons, we also salute the modern country artists – such as Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs and Kacey Musgraves – whose fresh takes are opening up the genre to a whole new audience of fans around the world.

Inside:

• Trace the origins of Country Music to gain an understanding of its modern form

• Celebrate the icons that the define the genre, including a four page feature all about the late icon Dolly Parton

• Flip through pages of imagery and take a visual journey through the winding roads of Country.
