Like Ken Burns’ ‘Country Music’ Documentary? Read These 10 Books Next
As exhaustive as a 16-and-a-half-hours may have seemed to non-fans, filmmaker Ken Burns and his team could only cover so much with their Country Music documentary. Instead of telling the full story of 20th century country music, the eight-episode series serves as a key to a much larger map, listing off names and events to further investigate while browsing a local book or record store.
If reading is your gateway to learning more about stories relived by Burns’ narrators -- and quite a few they skipped over -- consider these 10 books that cover the same time period and topics addressed in the film.
