"Smith's editing is exemplary. There is just enough introductory matter to set the scene year by year, and Smith disarms criticism and keeps at bay any dull search for misprints by attributing all such to the correspondents' failure to spell properly. Perhaps footnotes are fair game. Baudelaire is wrongly accused of misspelling Douleur as "Doleur", and the conductor Hans Kindler is reported on the rostrum until 1948, almost twenty years after he is declared dead. Not a few conductors have followed his example."Smith, Barry is the author of 'Frederick Delius and Peter Warlock A Friendship Revealed' with ISBN 9780198167068 and ISBN 0198167067.
