The Creation of Jazz: Music, Race, and Culture in Urban America - Blacks in the New World
Burton W. Peretti
Explains how jazz was shaped by urbanization, the 'great migration' of southern blacks northward, and the 'jazz image' - dress code, jargon, and use of drugs. This book places jazz in its rich social context.
