It is a fascinating exploration of the world of music, and the lengths that people will go to in order to possess something truly exceptional. With its rich characterizations and intricate plot, this book is a must-read for anyone who loves music, mystery, and intrigue.Seeing me turn towards him, he sprang from his seat, and before I could speak, snatched the fiddle from my hands, replacing it at once in its case; then closing the cover, he heaved a deep sigh of relief. I had no time to entreat, remonstrate, or resist; but as he took the fiddle from me, all wish to distinguish myself in a line that was not my own left me, and I almost laughed aloud at the folly and presumption of which I had been mentally guilty. Yet it was strange -- very strange.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
