Swing from a Small Island: The Story of Leslie Thompson
Leslie Thompson
Leslie Thompson, bandleader and trumpeter from Jamaica, played with the most significant black British swing musicians of the 1930s. He also served in the British army and as a probation officer. He describes vividly and without bitterness his wide ranging experiences, the gradual development of an awareness of racism and his religious faith.
