Vivaldi's life and personality are fascinating, especially because there are so many mysteries unsolved. Even the author of this book, John Booth, is a mystery. Who is this person? It says on the cover that this is the first music-related book this man has written. Well, he has done a terrific job! :-)

Reviewer: A reader from Baltimore, MD
For Vivaldi lovers who don't like dry and scholastic biographies, this can be confidently recommended as the first book, or even the only book, to read about the composer. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. The author really tells the story of this fascinating composer in a very engaging way! Bravo!
In fact, I would recommend every biography in this series. Pictures and photos about the composer's life and times really give the readers a lot of atmospheres and extra feelings. It's far more enjoyable this way when one reads a biography!
