"Do not pick up this book if you have any number of chores to finish, assignments to complete, children to feed, pressing appointments to keep... Once you start turning the pages, you may forget time, lose sense of time... The images and anecdotes are such a delight. Varies from the classic images you may have already seen in famous publications, ranging to snaps never before published. Another great collector's item for jazz lovers and William Claxton fans!"
