Title: Terrible Text Book
Review: I had to buy this book for my Music History class and I absolutely hate it. Also, I am disappointed because this does not come with the Listening Guide like the book says, it is just a workbook to try and keep you on track with what the Chapters were supposed to teach you. Unfortunately, from the text book you can't answer most of the questions in the guide. Like others have said, the language of the text book is incredibly vague. Important terms are not explained well within the Chapters or in the glossary. This book and the text book are a complete waste of money!If you HAVE to buy this book for school. Do future students a favor and express your hatred for the book when you have teacher evaluations. Unfortunately, there are few if any good Music history text books. So, if you have a music degree, know much about Music History and can write a straight-forward, easy to read book, you could make a killing in writing a college Music History book.
