I pre-ordered Volume 5 because a good friend (and my favourite artist) is one of the artists in the book, and her chapter also includes my photography. Then I also find out this volume includes another friend and several other artists that I really admire. So, buying this book was a no-brainer, it was always going to happen. The pre-order is duly delivered in quick time, and it was very well packed and protected against the Australian weather and postal service. Straight away, I read the chapters on my friends, and I was super-impressed with the quality, the writing style, and the overall production. I expected the book to be good, but I really didn't expect it to be this damn good! It is wonderful! I immediately decided I want (no, I need) the complete set! So, I've gone straight back into Pauline's online store and ordered Volumes 1-4. These books will be an important reference guide and valued accompaniment to my music collection.

Very prompt and professional service.
SOScott O.An excellent read and reference guide. I see Pauline is seeking submissions for a second one. Aussie blues artists would be mad not to get on board.
PCExcellent snapshot of the contemporary blues scene in Australia. A great read
