More about the book

"From her stage debut in 1922 to her final professional appearance in 1996, Elisabeth Welch was an important figure in the world of popular song. In 1923 she launched the Charleston, and throughout the Jazz Age she was associated with some of the great names of the Harlem Renaissance, including Josephine Baker, Adelaide Hall, Bill "Bojangles" Robinson, and Ethel Waters. On Broadway she popularized Cole Porter's scandalous "Love for Sale," and in 1933 she introduced "Stormy Weather" to British audiences. That same year she began a career in English musical theatre (Cole Porter's Nymph Errant) that lasted sixty years."
