Pictorial jacket with some very minor creasing at the head of the spine and along the top edge, unclipped. Book is fine; jacket very good plus. Illustrated throughout with photographs, drawings and reproductions of memorabilia. The origins of Skiffle lay in the music of the migrant workers of the 1920s and 30s who had left their homes in the southern states of America seeking work in the north and carried their musical heritage with them, whether it was the Mississippi blues, the work song, or the barrelhouse ballad, and a wealth of household 'instruments" including the washboard, gut bucket or the tea chest bass.
