John Philip Sousa: A Descriptive Catalogue of His Works by Paul E. Bierley
Hardback, 1973, first edition, signed by author (undedicated): "With every good wish, Paul E. Bierley, 13 January 1974). "In his time, John Philip Sousa (1854-1932) was the most popular musician in the world, traveling with his concert organization to hundreds of towns in the Untied States and Europe. He was most famous as "the March King," composer of such marches as "The Stars and Stripes Forever" and "The Washington Post," but his creativity extended into many other areas. Paul E. Bierley, after years of extensive research, here tells the story of Sousa's musical and literary efforts in the only catalog of all of Sousa's works..." In good condition, dust jacket well worn and heavily scuffed and marked with a couple of tape repairs but intact. Book itself good, bumped corners and slight shelf-wear but little other damage. Page edges generally clean and surfaces very clean with no underlining, marginalia, etc.
