Hope you did well at your recital. <br /><br />I was wondering if this Paul Johnson is the same author of <i>A History of the American People</i>. I'm pretty sure it is. He's an English Historian.

May you have many hours of artistry and enjoyment out of it. <br /><br />Mozart was such a monumental artist A book that centers on his music alone makes sense. His work had such a profound impact that it seems it cannot be examined enough. Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
