Just added this volume of Stolz's memoirs to a newly created Bibliography section. How trustworthy Stolz's memory was when dictating the content to this book's author is uncertain, but my eyebrows went up and down a bit. Just for one instance, Stolz claims to have rubbed shoulders with almost every Big Name of last hundred years; dandled on the knee of Brahms, went to Freud for counseling, complimented by Goering on his music, knew Einstein etc etc... Okay, maybe it all is true, but the book has a kind of braggart air, and may be more true of the way Stolz liked to remember things, than of what happened. He was in his nineties when he provided his recollections. As a picture of Stolz's upbeat and sanguine personality, it is probably most useful.Bluedawe22:04, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
