A groundbreaking social history of the drum kit, Matt Brennan's Kick It makes a compelling case for the instrument as one of most important and transformative musical inventions of the modern era.

Über den Autor

Marie Brennan is a former anthropologist and folklorist who shamelessly leans on her academic fields for inspiration. She recently misapplied her professors' hard work to The Market of 100 Fortunes and The Waking of Angantyr. She is the Hugo Award-winning and Nebula and World Fantasy-nominated author of the Victorian adventure series The Memoirs of Lady Trent along with several other series, over ninety short stories, several poems, and the New Worlds series of worldbuilding guides; as half of M.A. Carrick, she has written the Rook and Rose epic fantasy trilogy.
