Booker "Bukka" White (1905–1977) was one of the most important blues musicians of the twentieth century. In this book, David W. Johnson traces the trajectory of White’s life from his early years in Mississippi, through his imprisonment in the notorious Mississippi State Penal Farm in the late 1930s, to making a new life for himself in Memphis, TN.
