Cream of the Crop

There are a lot of trivia books on the market. Most of them do not live up to their hype or our hope. This book is a happy exception. Peppiatt manages to have it both ways -- it is a fast-moving collection of short, punchy, themed chapters, while at the same time, it goes into some obscure, loving, fascinating detail. It also covers a great deal of ground on the country landscape, from recounting the time Garth Brooks was booed off the stage at an 11th grade talent show; to Ferlin Husky's alter egos, Simon Crum and Terry Preston; to Six Degrees of Red Foley. All in all, it's something any fan of country music will devour, and it just might make a few non-fans want to hear more. Good job!
