Читать книгу Historical Dictionary of Jazz - John S. Davis - Страница 2
ОглавлениеThe historical dictionaries present essential information on a broad range of subjects, including American and world history, art, business, cities, countries, cultures, customs, film, global conflicts, international relations, literature, music, philosophy, religion, sports, and theater. Written by experts, all contain highly informative introductory essays of the topic and detailed chronologies that, in some cases, cover vast historical time periods but still manage to heavily feature more recent events.
Brief A–Z entries describe the main people, events, politics, social issues, institutions, and policies that make the topic unique, and entries are cross-referenced for ease of browsing. Extensive bibliographies are divided into several general subject areas, providing excellent access points for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more. Additionally, maps, photographs, and appendixes of supplemental information aid high school and college students doing term papers or introductory research projects. In short, the historical dictionaries are the perfect starting point for anyone looking to research in these fields.

I’d like to express my appreciation for those who helped most by providing research assistance, reviewing, editing, and suggestions. Among these, I thank Dr. Samuel Griffith and Dr. Daniel Jonas, who as doctoral research assistants, put in many hours devoted to researching and verifying much of the material contained in
this manuscript. The project would not have been completed
without their tireless efforts. Thank you to my editor, Jon Woronoff,
whose guidance, advice, and patience have been invaluable. I
couldn’t ask for better. Lastly, one cannot undertake such a
task as this without the support and understanding of family.
I am ever grateful to Zahra, Samantha, and Brian, for everything
you have done and continue to do in support of my work.
Your love and support mean everything.
