('Opera Caravan' is an adventure story, the story of what happens when a glamarous opera company takes to the road, as was the case of The Metropolitan Opera, which began its first season in 1883-84, weaving a golden thread of grand opera through the annals of 54 cities. This is the story of all its tours, and it takes you along on the special trains, you share in the excitement of the backstage conversations, as well as the idiosyncracies and shrewd maneuvers of temperamental prima donnas and impresarios. There are brilliant opening nights that are recreated here, plus an important feature of the book that will still delight readers is the compilation of complete tour casts, with a complete index of names, places, operas and other vital information.)
