The acclaimed biography of the legendary tenor
"Lester Leaps In jumps off the page with authenticity and insight.
The Prez was an amazing creator with a uniquely wicked sense of
humor, and this book captures it all."

penetrating book on the President of the Tenor Saxophone to
date."
--Publishers Weekly
"A provocative book, presenting Lester Young in a novel, even
controversial light while opening new avenues of possible
investigation into one of the most tantalizingly enigmatic of all
historic jazz figures."
--Richard Sudhalter, Los Angeles Times
"The lessons learned from Pres' painful life tell us a lot about
ourselves and the horrible consequences of racism in
America."
--T. Michael Crowell, San Diego Union-Tribune
