About This Item
Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, 1981. This trade autobiography from 1981 by the late Luciano Pavarotti is a rags-to-riches story that surpassed anything Horatio Alger could invent. How a baker's son becomes the Twentieth Century's most famous tenor is a remarkable, inspiring true-life tale. This book is in New, unread condition, with an unclipped dust jacket. I've placed the dust jacket into a Brodart protective sleeve. The book is bound in paper-covered boards with a red cloth spine, and die-stamped gilt spine lettering. The book measures 6 1/2 by 9 1/2 inches and includes 316 pages, with photo inserts and an Index.. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
