From the Publisher
An intimate look at the teeming world of New York Swing in the '20s and '30s
From the Inside Flap
"W. Royal Stokes['s]...text is much more than captions; it's a richly detailed commentary that embraces notation, anecdote and overview...Jazz has had a number of distinctive photographers...Peterson clearly belongs in their company." —Washington Post
"A compact yet sumptuous volume, it's one of the finest collections of its kind—unexpectedly so, because while a handful of these pictures are classics, most have not been seen in half a century." —Village Voice
"Once again, Royal Stokes does it." —Bill Cosby
"No one is more qualified than W. Royal Stokes to write an overview of the swing era in New York. It is the definitive work on the subject, informative, exciting, and vastly entertaining." —Mel Tormé
"A great book—Charles Peterson's memorable photos and Royal Stokes' comments and quotes help bring back the feeling of excitement and discovery I experienced when I first heard the great jazz masters of the 1920s and 1930s." —Billy Taylor
I saw it, lived it, Charles Peterson captured it. His visual imagery of the swing era in New York is authentic, intimate, and filled with emotion." —Milt "Judge" Hinton
