Lang on front cover and title page. All edges gilt. Cloth. Conductor B.J. Lang's copy. He conducted this work at The Cecilia in Boston March 31, 1892 (copy of program laid in). Manuscript notations sporatically throughout, presumably in his hand. "Ever since its founding in 1876, The Boston Cecilia has enjoyed a history remarkable for its many fine conductors.

Transferred to Germany, he wend down with the Westphalen. This daily record of his thoughts and the prison routine had been pricked on rolls of toilet paper and blown through a ventilator under his cell. It falls into two distinct parts - the first, covering his 78 days in solitary confinement, revelas a struggle against despair and insanity ... the second covers the remainder of his imprisonment, the semi-starved prisoners' preoccupation with food, super-sensitivity towards his cellmates. A moving human document but dated." (kirkus review).
