by Catherine Drinker Bowen; Barbara von Meck
Binding/Media: Hardcover
Condition: Very Good

Binding tight and square, corners and spine ends gently rubbed, one surface scratch to the front cover. Tanning to the endpaper gutters. No dustjacket. Reprint of the BOMC review laid-in. NY: Random House, 1937. Dated on title and copyright pages, no edition or printings stated. 484 pages, frontis. and 4 other b&w plates. This is Catherine Drinker Bowen's first book, the author awarded the National Book Award in 1958 for "The Lion and the Throne: The Life and Times of Sir Edward Coke (1552-1634)." Nadejda von Meck was a Russian businesswoman, who is best known today for her artistic relationship with Tchaikovsky, supporting him financially for 13 years, enabling him to devote himself full-time to composition. She was the dedicatee of his Symphony No. 4 in F minor. After the death of Tchaikowsky and Nadejda von Meck, their correspondence was given to Nadejda's favorite grandson, Vladimir. Barbara, co-author of this book, is Vladimir's widow. During the revolution of 1917, all von Meck property was seized, and with it the correspondence. In 1935, two volumes of the correspondence including the first six years were published in Russian by the Soviet government. This book is also the basis for a 1970 film "The Music Lovers" directed by Ken Russell and starring Richard Chamberlain and Glenda Jackson.
