Spot on assessment of “The History of Jazz” (just finished it myself). It’s probably more of a reference book than anything else.

For actual reading, his “How to Listen to Jazz” is probably much better - and covers quite a bit of the same ground.

"How To Listen to Jazz" is phenomenal. I picked it up on a whim, not even knowing who Ted Gioia is but I've loved it so far. Its opened me up to some new tunes I didn't know about.
