Abe, Kobo: Jazz Giants

Exceptional photography and classic jazz come together brilliantly in this book. K. Abé, a graphic designer, photographer, and jazz authority, has drawn from archives and individual collections to assemble what Nat Hentoff has described as a "photo microcosm of living jazz history." Here are all the greats: Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Lester Young, and hundreds more.
