Comprehensive Index to "The Record of Singing"

Following a Star
May Higgins served as secretary to Claudia Muzio from 1929 until 1935. She had collected letters sent home from their travels and circulated them in mimeographed form as "Following a Star". A kind colleague has sent me an electronic form of that collection, which is offered here as a remarkable document for enjoyment and for research.
