The Other Mozart: The Life of the Famous Chevalier de Saint-George

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Eric Velasquez. Joseph Boulogne--his mother a slave, his father a wealthy Frenchman--became a celebrated composer in the eighteenth century. The fascinating story of his life is told through narrative text; sidebars and timelines also provide historical context, though the density of text is daunting. Velasquez's atmospheric paintings blend well with the many archival drawings and artwork. Bib., glos.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
