From Albert Murray, our great literary practitioner of the blues idiom, comes a glorious new novel that evokes all the elegance and high spirits of a touring jazz band at the height of the Swing era. In The Seven League Boots, Murray spins a tale around an Alabama brass player named Scooter who, recently graduated from college, lands a job touring with a legendary composer known as the Bossman. Eloquently written, this is the third exciting instalment in a series that began with Train Whistle Guitar and The Spyglass Tree.
