It was well organized and easy to follow for those who may not know much about jazz or the history of jazz. Though there weren't a lot of pictures, they helped to put a face on the many famous jazz artists that came up in the book. I also enjoyed reading about Ella's manager who fought to get her and her band mates to be treated fairly, whether they were in the South or abroad. I would definitely try another biography in this series. ( ) no reviews | add a review
