From the Publisher

"In this nostalgic book, writer and photographer William P. Gottlieb presents a fond look at the 'Golden Age of Jazz,' from the late 1930s through the 1940s. Here are two hundred of Gottlieb's memorable photographs, masterful images with a distinctive storytelling touch that captures a very human side of these larger-than-life musical personalities. All the greats--Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and many more--are pictured onstage and off. ¶ 176 pages, 200 duotone photographs, size: 8 1/2 x 11". Smythe-sewn paperbound book, with flaps. ISBN: 0-87654-355-7."--© Pomegranate
