Caruso recordings in cylinder and 78-rpm formats

chapters examining labels, disc markings, recording contracts,
piracies, Caruso- related sheet music and ephemera, and much more
- Newly
discovered facts concerning the recording and manufacture of Caruso's
earliest records

- Title,
partner, and issue-number indexes, keyed to the discography for
