American author Alexander Wheelock Thayer (1817-97) sought to write an authoritative biography of the composer Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). A landmark in its use of source material, it remained unfinished at his death. This three-volume English edition, translated and revised from German versions, was first published in 1921.
