Early Jazz: Its Roots and Musical Development by Gunther Schuller

I'm passing along this copy of Gunther Schuller's Early Jazz: Its Roots and Musical Development. It's a classic for anyone interested in the history of the genre, covering everything from the origins of jazz through the 1930s. The cover has that great Art Deco style and it's in nice shape, perfect for a student or a music lover's bookshelf.
