Devil At The Confluence represents the first comprehensive book ever published on the history of the blues music of St. Louis. More than a beautiful coffee-table book, the original illustrations, vintage advertising and rare photographs detail the chronological story of what the St. Louis blues are, who the St. Louis blues musicians were, and how their careers began in St. Louis.
