The History of Rock & Roll

Rating:
Summary: Average, not very detailed.
Review: I checked this book out from the school library about 2 yearsago...This book is what the title says: The History of Rock and Roll.This book uses big text and a lot of photographs. It doesn't really gointo detail about the artists, but it does mention them and it showsthe evolution of rock and roll really well. One part of the book Ilike is the Suggested Listening section, showing music from the50s-90s. This book covers the beginning of rock and roll all the wayto the grunge era, a little after Cobain's death. If you are lookingfor a book that shows the evolution of rock, this is the book. If youare looking for detailed information on the artists of rock and rollthroughout history, this isn't it.

3 out of 5 stars.

Summary: Rock and Roll Forever!
Review: The prolific writer of junior biographies has done it again. Mr. Shirley's book reflects a strong knowledge of rock and roll history. For children growing up in these times, they will find an excellent resource that will educate them on the history of this incredible period of music exhuberance.

Review: this Book is alright for a starter type of book but it doesn't fully grasp all the information one would want in such a Important Heading.when you see a Book that says the History of Rock&Roll you are expecting a Full overview&Insights left&right&this Book doesn't do that.but it's still a Interesting read nevertheless.
