Louis Armstrong, In His Own Words : Selected Writings

Bok av Thomas Brothers
This book includes previously unpublished essays, letters, and memoirs written by one of the giants of American music. Armstrong recounts his early life in New Orleans, his experiences in Chicago and New York during the 1920s, his infamous crowning as "King of the Zulus," and his late years in Queens, New York. Here is a little-known dimension of Louis Armstrong that will stand as a treasure for the history of jazz and, indeed, the history of American culture.
