Playing to the Tide: The Eighteenth Annual Grateful Dead Scholars Caucus, 2015.
- 6 x 9 in. | 121 pp.
This volume followed the format of the 2014 Program, framing the conference in a larger context that included articles derived from earlier conference papers along with reviews by Caucus participants. This was the last variation before the Program adopted its final format. This version includes a few emendations but is otherwise the same as the volume that was printed.
