Kill 'Em and Leave: Searching for James Brown and the American Soul by James McBride

4.0

I can't say that I knew much about James Brown before this book and now I understand a bit more about those sources of unknowing. I appreciate McBride's research and musical passion--I'm left feeling like I've been somewhere new and have the opportunity to continue learning, especially about southern American music.

Also, the table of contents, with its chapter summaries, is the best. I'm so glad McBride thanked the person who did that--she (Faith Briggs) excites!
