The author wisely chose to focus on Orys early career. rather than his later years.A refreshing and valuable work well worth reading by those interested in the early days of jazz. Highly recommended4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Kid Ory book a great read!By David R. RuffnerThis is a well written book about one of the true unsung heroes of early jazz.
