%X The authorised biography of Cosima Wagner.  With an introduction by 
Ernest Newman.  Introduction to the Da Capo edition by George Buelow.
Martin van Amerongen observes that Du Moulin-Eckart "must have written
his book lying flat on his stomach, so cringingly obsequious is its 
tone".  Ernest Newman, trying to determine the progress of Wagner's
affair with Cosima (in his 'Life'), found Du Moulin-Eckart's biography 
infuriating: "he flits backwards and forwards from fact to fact, from 
date to date, with as little sense of design as a fly zigzagging 
across a window-pane".
