The International Sweethearts of Rhythm, a popular women's jazz band of the 1940s, earned a reputation as the "best all-women's swing band ever to perform." This revised and updated edition provides fascinating reading for jazz enthusiasts and students of American history, music, and women's history. It is the most comprehensive and objective history of the band to date, as Handy interviews members of the band and documents all sides of the band's controversial story.
