Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wagner, Bayreuth, and the Festival Plays
I AM not going to give my readers a categorical description of bright, magic Bayreuth, as Jean Paul justly calls this delightful spot* with its enchanted girdle of environment - for it is in truth its setting, or environment; that gives to Bayreuth its singular charm. Who that has once seen those picturesque, fir-capped mountains, or whose weary eyes have been refreshed by the tender green of those long stretches of undulating meadow-lands - water-clad they may be called.
