Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, and Cecil Taylor revolutionized music from the end of the twentieth century into the twenty-first, expanding on jazz traditions with distinctly new concepts of composition, improvisation, instrumentation, and performance. They remain figures of controversy due to their border-crossing processes. Miles, Ornette, Cecil is the first book to connect these three icons of the avant-garde, examining why they are lionized by some critics and reviled by others, while influencing musicians across such divides as genre, geography, and racial and ethnic backgrounds. Mandel offers fresh insights into their careers from interviews with all three artists and many of their significant collaborators, as well as a thorough overview of earlier interpretations of their work.

The Life and Fantastical Crimes of Spring Heeled Jack: Being a Complete and Faithful Memoir of the Curious Youthful Adventures of Sir John Cecil Ashto
The year is 1865. Falsely imprisoned for high treason, Captain John Ashton awaits execution by hanging - but instead finds himself on the run from the law and desperate to redeem his good name. Ashton assumes the guise of Spring Heeled Jack, an agile, phantomesque figure of folklore, and begins a campaign of harassment and intimidation against those who framed him. Quickly, however, he finds himself drawn into the intrigues of London's shadow-world, including a deadly game of cat and mouse against a rooftop-dwelling serial killer ...In the great tradition of penny dreadful adventure tales, this action-packed novel re-imagines the urban legend of Spring Heeled Jack as a superhero origin story, told as the memoir and confession of Spring Heeled Jack himself.
