Strange Fruit: Billie Holiday and the Power of a Protest Song by Gary GolioMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
While I didn't like this as much as his previous book about Jimi Hendrix, this book is an excellent introduction to Billie Holiday and the song. I think it treats the subject of lynching with the respect it deserves, while also not being too much for the age group it is aimed at to handle.
