Book Reviews of People and Pianos: A Pictorial History of Steinway & Sons (Amadeus)

Book Review: An interesting scrapbook of Steinway
Summary: 4 Stars

Relatively recently updated, this book is a brief and sugar coated, but very interesting history of the Steinway & Sons company, arguably manufacturer of the finest pianos in the world. The black and white photos (not terribly well reproduced) give a sort of scrapbook character to the piece.

For the piano officianado who appreciates the character of a Steinway, it is a nice little history of the Company.
