Illustrated with album cover images and more than a hundred concert and portrait photos in color and black and white, this book explores the saxophone's role in jazz from the 1920s through the end of the century in essays by more than a dozen jazz authorities.

The book also includes a comprehensive guide to the finest recordings that feature jazz saxophone.
