Accordion Revolution's early reviews:
“A rollicking journey that enhances the joy of the instrument I hold in my arms every night!”
— Jenny Conlee, The Decemberists
“Bruce Triggs gives the accordion the scholarship it deserves, demonstrating its overlooked, important impact on music history.”
— Krist Novoselić, Giants in the Trees, Nirvana
“Given the general, pretty much universal level of mockery of the accordion, this a book that I never thought I’d see written. Well done.”
— James Fearnley, The Pogues
