If the new book is anything like his superb 1971 Blow My Blues Away (Louisiana State UP) then I reckon it will be money well spent.

George is a superb writer, great photographer, field recordist par excellence, a gentle interviewer, and an all aroind nice guy. Hiswork has always been excellent, if not all about blues and co.
