Description of the book at that link is a bit odd: "Jackie McLean (1931-2006) was one of the finest alto players and a legend of jazz. This book looks at the man and his work, his influences, and why his records have such enduring value." Same author (Derek Amsell) for the Northway bios of McLean and Mobley. Yes, I think this publisher has a series, there was a Lee Morgan one a while back as well.

There's an interesting biography of Mobley available - Workout: The Life and Music of Hank Mobley.
