Mr. Langshaw's Square Piano
I'm not really sure how to classify this book. It's part fiction (in order to move the story along, there is some fabrication of the facts), it's mostly non-fiction, and in some ways it could be classified as a biography of Broadwood ... Well-written and engaging, if you like an off-beat memoir, music history, or like learning about little known historical facts then you would probably very much enjoy Mr. Langshaw's Square Piano: The Story of the First Pianos and How They ...

Book Review: The Raven King: Matthias Corvinus and the Fate of his ...
At its core, The Raven King is a book about books. Although nearly half of the book is comprised of a more conventional biography of the king of Hungary, Matthias Corvinus (r. 1458-90), the heart of Marcus Tanner's new monograph is its account of ... In his desire to situate Corvinus and his library within their broader cultural contexts, Tanner offers cursory examinations of other kingdoms and courts, and his historical narrative depends entirely on secondary sources, ...

For over half a century, Isaac Deutscher's three-volume biography of Trotsky, a literary-historical masterpiece in its own right, was regarded as the last word on the subject. Many who were deeply hostile to the Russian revolution and all its leading actors nonetheless acclaimed these books: in 1997, asked to nominate his favourite book for National Book Day, the newly elected prime minister, Tony Blair, nominated the trilogy.
