Entertaining the Alien

8. Bluegrass: A History, Neal V. Stephenson

Very dry, but informative, book on the beginnings of bluegrass as a musical genre. There really isn't much more to say about it, as I'm sure most of the things I learned are of interest only to me. However, it definitely gave me a feel for how I want to approach some of the historical bits in some of the stories I'm working on.
