Probably the best book on Puccini in English and a very significant addition to the century-old Master Musicians Series, by one of the most authoritative writers on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Italian opera. Grounded in the latest biographical and musical scholarship, it presents an integrated discussion of the composer's life and works, and includes illustrations and music examples, a full catalogue of compositions, a chronology and bibliography.
