3.0 out of 5 stars
A sympathetic look at a great American artist,
This review is from: Scott Joplin and the ragtime era (Hardcover)
Scott Joplin is _the_ name in Ragtime, and this book does a fine job of tracing what is known about his life and career. It's obviously written by a fan, though, and to my mind doesn't do enough to place Joplin in the context of his times (for a book with the title "Scott Joplin and the Ragtime Era", that is). Its comments on the early record industry are most revealing, however, and the black-and-white photos are above average. For ragtime fans and those who are interested in the roots of modern popular music.
