{"product_id":"bluegrass-in-baltimore-tim-newby-9780786494392","title":"Bluegrass in Baltimore: The Hard Drivin' Sound and Its Legacy","description":"\u003cp\u003e With an influx of Appalachian migrants who came looking for work in the 1940s and 1950s, Baltimore found itself populated by some extraordinary mountain musicians and was for a brief time the center of the bluegrass world. Life in Baltimore for these musicians was not easy. There were missed opportunities, personal demons and always the up-hill battle with prejudice against their hillbilly origins. Based upon interviews with legendary players from the golden age of Baltimore bluegrass, this book provides the first in-depth coverage of this transplanted-roots music and its broader influence, detailing the struggles Appalachian musicians faced in a big city that viewed the music they made as the \"poorest example of poor man's music.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Newby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786494395\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786494392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 5.80w x 0.50d","brand":"Tim Newby","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47965152936191,"sku":"9780786494392","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_99647fc8-fa26-4ba8-8558-c1613497f034.jpg?v=1767278795","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bluegrass-in-baltimore-tim-newby-9780786494392","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
