KahnSimon and Schuster, New York, NY, 1970, First Printing, SIGNEDHardcover, near very good, dust jacket is good - very good with some edge wear, jacket is now protected in clear archival sleeveCasals' story has an epic quality. Set in an era of massive turbulence and change, it is the story of a man's passionate pursuit of beauty and justice in a world racked by revolutions and wars. It is a story whose protagonist performed for Queen Victoria in the late 1800's and for President John F. Kennedy shortly before man set foot on the moon. It is the story of a consummate musician who silences his instrument to articulate his love of man; of a fervent patriot who protests iniquity by exiling himself from his beloved homeland for a third of his years; of a man who when nearing ninety embarks on a personal peach crusade, taking his music to a score of lands.Joys and Sorrows is illustrated with more than 50 pages of hitherto unpublished documents, rare musical memorabilia, correspondence with President Kennedy, Albert Schweitzer and others, and a portfolio of uniquely intimate contemporary photographs by Casals by Albert E. Kahn.INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the AUTHOR on the ffep:For Ray - With thanks for all the thoughtful favors and very best wishes!
