Description: Collins & Brown, 1991. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 192.

Cheered and feted wherever he went, Caruso lived in a glamorous world with friends such as Nellie Melba, Toscanini, Puccini, Chaliapin and John McCormack.

Use has been made of much previously unpublished material, including the often poignant recollections of Caruso's son. The author's previous books include a biography of Puccini and introductions to the work of Chagall and Picasso. ISBN: 9781855850224. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
