Product Description
The story of Marion Try Slaughter, the cantankerous Texas who as "Vernon Dalhart" became the first country-style singer to gain a national following in the 1920s. Jack Palmer uses rare source materials — including previously unpublished letters by Dalhart and his family and business associates — to shed new light on this controversial star. Includes a complete discography of Dalhart's recordings and more than 60 illustrations.
