Jazz: New Perspectives on the History of Jazz by Twelve of the World's Foremost Jazz Critics and Scholars
New York Da Capo Press 1975 0306800020 / 9780306800023 Trade Paperback Very Good
387 pp., illus., music, discography, index; 22 cm. First published, 1959. Tight, clean text. Light dust spotting/edges. "The names of Nat Hentoff and Albert J. McCarthy have become almost synonymous with jazz writing. Hentoff, editor of Jazz Review, writer for Downbeat, High Fidelity, New Yorker, and theVillage Voice, and McCarthy, editor of Jazz Monthly, have raised jazz beyond mere appreciation and discography to a subject which demands the rigorous application of musicological, sociological, and historical analysis. In addition to their own contributions, the twelve articles they have commissioned by internationally noted critics and scholars provide almost revolutionary evidence of the emergence of Jazz as a serious art form. / Nat Hentoff is the first Jazz critic every named a "Jazz Master" by the National Endowment for the Arts." - Publisher.

Hentoff, Nat
The War on the Bill of Rights and the Gathering Resistance
New York Seven Stories Press 2003 1583226214 / 9781583226216 First Edition, First Printing Hard Cover Fine Fine Collectible
176 pp., illus., index; 22 cm. Tight, clean copy. Fine DJ. "'The Constitution,' said Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia ominously in March, 2003, 'just sets minimums. Most of the rights that you enjoy go way beyond what the Constitution requires.' In The War on the Bill of Rights and the Gathering Resistance, nationally syndicated columnist and Village Voice mainstay Nat Hentoff draws on untapped sources--from reporters, resisters, and civil liberties law professors across the country to administration insiders--to piece together the true dimensions of the current assault on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The first draft of the USA PATRIOT Act to go to Congress included the suspension of habeas corpus. The proposed sequel (PATRIOT Act II) would make it possible to revoke U.S. citizenship, and, for the first time in history, authorize secret arrests. Both Patriot Acts increase electronic surveillance of Americans, with minimal judicial supervision. Hentoff refocuses attention on domestic surveillance initiatives established by unilateral executive actions, such as Operation TIPS and the Total Information Awareness System, both still quietly functioning. Hentoff chronicles the inevitable rise of citizen's groups against these gross infringements, comparing today's Bill of Rights Defense Committees to Samuel Adams's Sons of Liberty, whose campaign against the British helped to precipitate the American Revolution. Afforded little coverage in the major media, the Bill of Rights Defense Committees now have spread to nearly one hundred cities and towns nationwide. Hentoff quotes Lance Morrow, who wrote, 'If Americans win a war (not just against Saddam Hussein but the longer-term struggle) and lose the Constitution, they will have lost everything.' / Nat Hentoff, a prolific author and journalist and weekly columnist in the Village Voice, has won the National Press Foundation Award for Distinguished Contributions to Journalism, and the American Bar Association Certificate of Merit for Coverage of the Criminal Justice System, as well as the Thomas Szasz Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Cause of Civil Liberties." - Publisher.
