Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Handel
The compiler of a Short biography of Handel labours under the difficulty of superabundant material. A short, condensed statement of facts and dates is indeed possible, although Handel's life was so long and so active that even these must occupy much space. But, from the moment a single detail is admitted, it becomes evident that a well-balanced life of him must contain so many more as would demand a space five times as large as the limits of the present volume.
