Edward Elgar Letters of a Lifetime

This book, prepared by one of the world's premier Elgar scholars, draws from over ten thousand letters to present a comprehensive and compelling picture of Elgar and his times. Moore has selected letters to and from a wide range of acquaintances and friends--family members, great literary and musical figures, those people "pictured" in the Enigma Variations--to provide a fascinating record of over fifty years of a great, creative life.
