Hello, u/regretfortwo. I'm deeply sorry that this is what you've found out about your DH, and just before the holidays. It truly sucks.
Per your request we'll keep your post up as long as we may. The reality is that you may find it more suitable to get what you're looking for if you post it over in r/LetterstoJNMIL. I'm a moderator there and if you let me know about posting over there, I'll try to keep an eye on things for you there, specifically.
In the meantime, it's not historical fiction, but have you read Amanda Petrusich's Do Not Sell at Any Price: The Obsessive Hunt for the World's Rarest 78rpm Records? It's a history of so-called race records and how they influenced US music through the Twentieth century, and so much more. It's a very personal book, and no romance. Non-fiction, though. I found it absolutely fascinating when I read it, easy to read and utterly absorbing.

First heard about this tune in the book Do Not Sell at Any Price. Good book talks a fair bit about the old blues recorded back in the day on 78s.
