"Hailed as the Bible of blues travelers throughout the world, Blues Traveling will shepherd the faithful to such shrines as the intersection where Robert Johnson might have made his deal with the devil and the railroad tracks that inspired Howlin' Wolf to moan "Smokestack Lightnin'." Blues Traveling was the first and is the indisputably essential guidebook to Mississippi's musical places and its blues history. For this new edition Steve Cheseborough returned to the Delta, revisited all of the locales featured in previous editions of the book, and uncovered fresh destinations.
He includes updated material on new festivals, the newly dedicated state blues markers, club openings and closings, and many other transformations in the Delta's ever-lively blues scene."--Jacket.
