Look inside the book







A preview of a few of the pages inside Devil At The Confluence, 
the first comprehensive book ever published on the history of the 
blues music of St. Louis. 

More than a beautiful coffee-table book, the original illustrations, vintage
advertising and rare photographs detail the chronological story of what the St. Louis blues are, who the St. Louis blues musicians were, and how their careers began in St. Louis. Included with the book is a special compact disc of recordings by St Louis legends from Delmark Records.

Pre-orders by mail are $45 and signed by the author. 
To request a pre-order form, email:
