"GRASS ROOTS begins at the beginning, tracing the origin of bluegrass to the stringbands and fiddlers of Appalachia, who were influenced by Irish and Scottish reels. [From there] Hill chronicles the rise to fame of the many bluegrass luminaries. The book is handsome -- the art staff of Vermont Life magazine did the layout -- and the cover was thoughtfully conceived. GRASS ROOTS gives a nostalgic view of a nostalgic music."
Jean S. Osborne, President, JIM & JESSE Fan Club
"GRASS ROOTS is a treasure, and I'm proud of it. [It is] very well written, and interesting to read. It is well put together. There is enough good pictures to make it eye catching, and enough interesting material to hold one's attention. I would highly recommend it, and shall do so in the JIM & JESSE Newsletter which I am currently putting together."
Reader Reviews
It's been a great run folks, 27 years in print without a penny of advertisement or promotion... but GRASS ROOTS is heading off into the sunset. However, I will make it available as an e-book here at amazon, as well as my updated BLUEGRASS BREAKDOWN. Thanks to everyone who helped with this book, bought it or read it---Fred Hill, 2007.
