The Mystery of Leopold Stokowski
Although supporters and critics of conductor Leopold Stokowski have disagreed over his contribution to symphonic music, a consensus developed that he was a man of paradox and mystery, an extrovert showman reclusively shy about who he was and what he was trying to do in music. This volume attempts to solve the mysteries. Includes an annotated discography.

Stokowski
Daniel, long time associate and friend unfolds "Stoki's" extraordinary career, spanning more than 75 years of music-making. The story of this conductor's involvement with the musical institutions of this century, his vigor, productivity and vision, is closely entwined with the history of music in America. Though there were many facets to Stokowski's personality, including his vanity, showmanship, and love of publicity, Daniel reminds us that behind the glamour and headlines, Stokowski's contribution to music was profound and of lasting importance. The author's style is anecdotal, relying on extensive quotations from memoirs, correspondence and especially personal interviews. ISBN 0-396-07936-9.
