From the author of ""The University of Arkansas Razorback Band: A History, 1874-2004"" comes this new book about the birth, growth, and development of other successful bands at Arkansas colleges that continue to have marching and concert band programs on their campuses. T.T. Tyler Thompson takes the reader on a journey from the late nineteenth century through the early twenty-first century as bands became an integral part of the state's budding campuses of higher education and provided a performance outlet for thousands of college students, setting the musical stage for their respective campuses' educational experience.
