The mandolin: a history - now available

On 7 August the BIB relayed news that had appeared on Bluegrass Today about The mandolin: a history, a new book by Australian luthier Graham McDonald which was then being prepared for publication.

The European Bluegrass Blog (EBB) now announces that copies of the book are being shipped to the author and will be available through his website at US$44.95.  The EBB advises contacting the author for details of price and distributors in different countries, which can be done by e-mail.

The next issue of Bluegrass Europe, the quarterly EBMA magazine, will include an in-depth article and review of the new book, including photos.
