About this book
Margaret Blake-Alverson looks back on a career as singer and voice teacher in this 1913 memoir, written in Oakland for friends and musical associates of more than fifty years. She tells of her father's Christian ministry, the trip to California by way of the Isthmus, Stockton in the fifties, and music in Santa Cruz and San Francisco, and of her part in political campaigns and Grand Army of the Republic activities. The contents name such musicians as Jenny Lind and Adelina Patti, and chapters on the singing voice are followed by a list of pupils across three decades.
