The History of Jazz (or in paperback)	Ted Gioia	"...anyone looking for a balanced, well-written popular history of jazz will certainly find it both readable and reliable, a few minor slips notwithstanding. Nor should more experienced readers expect to come away empty-handed: Mr. Gioia, for instance, has some highly intelligent things to say about the extent to which contemporary jazz now reflects the fragmentation of the postmodern movement in art." Terry Teachout, The Wallstreet Journal
