MY LIFE AS A DOPYERA
by Margaret Lay-Dopyera
-
Written by the wife of John Dopyera, Jr., this is a detailed history of the multi-talented Dopyera family, inventors of the Dobro and National guitars. Covering the family's involvement with instruments from Slovakia of the late 1800's on through nearly all of the 20th century, this book also chronicles the experience of an immigrant family throughout the 20th century. Provides glimpses of life in Slovakia, past and present. Most interesting is the detailed documentation of how the 10 Dopyera siblings (and their offspring) were involved with National, Dobro, Rickenbacker, Valco, Zorko and other companies. Spiralbound, 96 pp.
