Never before have the words of professionals performing in the field been collected and compiled into a work that so authoritatively defines, qualifies, and amplifies the art form. This book contains ten color photographs and twenty black and white photographs.

Reviews

“When I thought of Lou I knew he was the one, probably the only one, who had this living connection to the time and the vast majority of the players. He is the one perfect choice to write the history. I thank him.” – Prof. Jewel Walker, University of Delaware
