Flying V: The Illustrated History of This Modernistic Guitar Book

This book was recommended to me by a friend. Since I live in coal country and my dad was a coal miner, I decided to check out this book. I thought it was going to only focus on the history of coal, but I should've known better considering today's climate (pun intended). The history sections were well presented. However, when it came time to discuss coals effect on the environment, I found it very one-sided without even considering any other point of view. One such statement was when the author insinuated that the world would be better had coal never been discovered or used. Her assumption that mankind would've discovered something better is laughable. If you live in coal country, grew up in coal country OR your livelihood is connected to coal you might want to consider this book. Just understand that outside the discussions of history, coal is painted as a destructive villain.
