Chicago Jazz
I am more interested in Chicago life in the 20s than in jazz, and this book provides an interesting look at a little understood period. One wishes there were more details, but the sources are scanty. The author shows how jazz was transformed in Chicago, and why the music traveled East during the Depression. His tone is a little distant, but the scenes are vivid.
