- "In The Women of Country Music, editors Charles K. Wolfe and James E. Akenson present the best current scholarship and writing on female country musicians. Beginning with an essay on the 1920s career of teenage guitar picker Roba Stanley, the collection continues with contributions that examine Polly Jenkins and Her Musical Plowboys, 50s honky-tonker Rose Lee Maphis, superstar Faith Hill, the relationship between Emmylou Harris and poet Bronwen Wallace, Hee-Haw's banjo-picking Roni Stoneman, and more." "Country music is reaching a wider audience than ever, and female musicians have been vital to that shift. The Women of Country Music pays dues to these savvy new players, as well as to the performers who blazed a path for their success."--Jacket.
