Description: "The 'Ukulele A History" by Jim Tranquada and John King This is a Latitude 20, University of Hawai'i Press book."When seventy-nine-year-old Manuel Nunes died in July 1922, the brief obituaries of the "inventor of the 'ukulele" that appeared in Honolulu were quickly picked up by wire services and reprinted in newspapers nationwide. The ubiquity of the 'ukulele,,,would find space for two or three paragraphs about the elderly musical entrepreneur who had arrived in Hawaii aboard an emigrant ship more than forty years before." IntroductionThis copy is unmarked and in very good condition in a very good dust jacket.
