Honkytonk Heroes

Honkytonk Heroes

Robert Cheney, 1975

Description

This book is an essay on country music, illustrated with photographs of the top stars in that field. Since it is really a photo album, the quality of picture reproduction was out primary concern. We spent the major part of the budget on fine quality paper and a superior printing job.
