Opis:

Po wielkim kryzysie roku 1929 i przed włączeniem się USA do działalności na frontach II wojny  światowej, Ameryka przeżywała okres beztroski i niewiarygodnego rozwoju. Powstały wtedy wielkie drapacze chmur, wielkie samochody, wielkie samoloty... i, jakże by inaczej, wielkie orkiestry jazzowe. W niniejszym tomie prezentujemy te formacje, które roztańczyły całe pokolenia.
