Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original Best Quality


These are some excellent reviews - I have little to add other than to comment that I found the research thorough, the level of detail appropriate to the subject matter, and the writing accurate appealingly non-academic - an all around enjoyable and informative read about T. Monk and this seminal period of American jazz history in general.

For my Kindle brethren: the pictures from the center of the book ARE included in the end material of the Kindle edition. However, because you are viewing them on the Kindle e-ink, and not on glossy paper stock, they are not of the high quality you will receive in the paper edition. Despite this, I found it completely worth the Kindle price.Get more detail about Thelonious Monk: The Life and Times of an American Original.
