After a dramatic opening—an account of Louis Armstrong’s arrest at age twelve for shooting “six blanks straight up into the air”—this volume presents a clear, chronological biography of the jazz great. With a lively style and plentiful photographs, the book channels the exuberance of Satchmo’s music. Sidebars provide supplementary information on New Orleans history, horn technique, Armstrong’s filmography, and more. Back matter includes chapter notes, a time line, a selected list of songs, suggestions for further reading, bibliography, a list of relevant Web sites, a glossary, and an index.
