Book excerpt: A Century of Country is a highly personal journey concerning real stories, real people, and real life. It looks backward to show how this multimillion-dollar entertainment form has drawn so much of its strength and resilience from its rich heritage. Country music is as old-fashioned as wax recordings and as modern as the Internet. It has always been part of America's cultural fabric and it always will be. It tells us so much about who we are as a people. It is the story of our past and the mirror to our future. It is, in a word, ourselves. Book jacket.
