The first-ever guidebook to North American music museums and other sites, from the iconic to the obscure. Wherever you are, you don’t have to go far in North America to find world-class music museums and historical sites. Whether in major cities like Nashville, Detroit, and New Orleans or less familiar locales like Hibbing, Minnesota (the childhood home of Bob Dylan) or Nazareth, Pennsylvania (home of the Martin Guitar Company), the riches of its musical heritage are available to everyone from newbie tourists to veteran road-trippers. The Music Lover's Guide to North America is the first guidebook of its kind, focused on the best music museums and other points of interest between the Atlantic and the Pacific, in both Canada and the United States. In addition to practical information, it provides fascinating background on history, culture, geography, and politics, covering everything from major destinations like the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to festivals, signature instrument shops, driving and walking tours, and much more.
