Overall, ""Richard Wagner To Mathilde Wesendonck"" offers a unique perspective on one of the most influential composers in history and the woman who inspired some of his most famous works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
