From the preface: "The purpose of this book is not to serve as a detailed reference book for students of New Orleans Music. Neither is it presented as a comprehensive or even coherent history of the city or its music. It is a rather loose collection of stories, pictures, and little bits of information on New Orleans Jazz, its people and places."
