Title: They also wrote
First published: 2000
Description: "This book contains the biographies of songwriters, but not just any songwriters. Everyone profiled in this book is either not primarily known for writing music or is, in the author's estimation, underappreciated or not well known. The biographies are arranged alphabetically within three separate sections: famous people not known as songwriters, underappreciated songwriters, and obscure songwriters.

Each entry not only profiles the person's life but also lists his or her most famous songs and then points the reader to other related biographies. Finally, indexes of people and songs provide even more usability. All in all, this is a wonderful resource - for serious music enthusiasts, music historians, and casual music fans alike."--BOOK JACKET.
