First line

Jazz in the Midwest evolved from many sources, and developed in a territory with boundaries determined by economic, political, and cultural circumstances.

From the rear cover

The great bands of the Kansas City era drew on many styles to create a distinctive music that was among the finest expressions of swing and laid groundwork for modern jazz. Interviews and narrative combine in this intimate view of the development of an American music center from the mid-1920s through the late 1930s.
