Description

This is a study of the way in which popular words and music relate to American life. The question of what popular song was, and why it came into existence, as well as how song fitted within the context of the larger 20th Century society are considered and explained clearly and fruitfully. The author also offers insight into why musical styles were seen to change as they did during this time period.
