A HANDBOOK OF JAZZ

A companion piece to his earlier (1952) History of Jazz in America adds some collateral information on its developments, its schools and styles, its elements, instruments and idiom. Performers, past and present are represented with appraisals. The recommended 5 and 15 inch shelves of jazz records will start the collector on his way.
