A pretty interesting oral history of one of the great indie rock labels of the last twenty years. Being co-written by the owners of Merge, it was probably a trifle one-sided but then I've never heard any real dirt on Merge anyways. 279 pages. Grade: B

Like the other books in this series, there was some interesting stuff in here along with a lot of very outdated info. I don't guess there's much use for a series of books like this today in the age of instant information on the internet. 264 pages. Grade: B-
