Publisher's Synopsis
Dr Cone's Adelina Patti: Queen of Hearts is the first full-length Patti biography in English since 1920, and it is the only work to provide a full account of Patti's early years and final decades. It includes much original material, including previously unpublished Patti letters, and more than 150 photographs that evoke the rich mosaic of the diva's life and career. A foreword by the Earl of Harewood and an introduction by Robert Tuggle open the book; a chronology by Thomas Kaufman and a discography by William Moran complete the historical record. - -
