Pretty good. I felt like it almost would have been better as a Wikipedia entry, though. The details presented don't feel like they added much vs a simple overview of events. There was a lot of historical tie-ins to fill some pages, which I found a little more interesting. The author also chose to dedicate chapters to Josephine Baker, even though she and Biggs rarely crossed paths. Not much as a biography but a good, if light, history of Paris jazz
