Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone?: The Carter Family & Their Legacy in American MusicThe first major biography of the Carter Family, the musical pioneers who almost single handedly created the sounds and traditions that grew into modern folk, country, and bluegrass music. Meticulously researched and lovingly written, it is a look at a world and a culture that, rather than passing, has continued to exist in the music that is the legacy of the Carters songs that have shaped and influenced generations of artists who have followed them.

The first major biography of the Carter Family, the musical pioneers who almost single-handedly created the sounds and traditions that grew into modern folk, country, and bluegrass music.

Meticulously researched and lovingly written, it is a look at a world and a culture that, rather than passing, has continued to exist in the music that is the legacy of the Carters--songs that have shaped and influenced generations of artists who have followed them.

Brilliant in insight and execution, Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone? is also an in-depth study of A.P., Sara, and Maybelle Carter, and their bittersweet story of love and fulfillment, sadness and loss. The result is more than just a biography of a family; it is also a journey into another time, almost another world, and theirs is a story that resonates today and lives on in the timeless music they created.

Happy with the jacket.

We were looking for a lightweight jacket that could go with jeans or dress pants and this one works. Fits well. Very satisfied.

Sizes run small; larger sizes not available
I returned the jacket because the size was much smaller than described. I liked the look and feel of the jacket and the material, but b it x was v much smaller in size than a different jacket I bought at c the same c Times in the c same c size from b a a different company. The other b one for me v perfectly. The Coofandy jacket was not a standard size and much much smaller than I had hoped. If they had offered a larger size I would have exchanged it for a size larger. But they don’t, so I returned it and kept the other one that fit like a glove.
