This book contains an informative and detailed biography of Enrico Caruso, the seminal and esteemed Italian opera singer. Complete with a plethora of telling photographs and a wealth of insightful, interesting information about this most accomplished opera singer, this book will be of considerable value to those with an interest in his life and work. It is a biography not to be missed by the discerning collector. Enrico Caruso (1873 – 1921) was a popular Italian operatic tenor. He performed to significant acclaim at the most prestigious opera houses of Europe and America, and appeared in a variety of different roles ranging from the lyric to the dramatic. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive. Amazon customer review: What an amazing story. Bought this book for my mother. She learned a lot more about Caruso on a personal level. She was taken back though, by the private letter he had written to his wife. They were written in broken English, just as he spoke.
