His quest takes him across the country, talking to historians, curators, and guitar makers, and he explores the guitar's mystique: freedom, the open road, protest and rebellion, the blues, youth, lost love, and sexuality. In an extraordinary variety of hands--miners and society ladies, lumberjacks and presidents' wives, Hawaiians, African-Americans, Cajuns, jazz players, spiritualists, singing cowboys of the silver screen, and Beatles fans--it has become America's instrument.--From publisher description. 000317947 650_0 $$aGuitar$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000317947 650_0 $$aGuitarists$$zUnited States. 000317947 85200 $$bgen$$hML1015.G9$$iB753$$i2005 000317947 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:317947$$pGLOBAL_SET 000317947 980__ $$aBIB 000317947 980__ $$aBOOK 000317947 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
