Dower provides more than one hundred examples of his criticisms that document the music of Germany and the United States in the second quarter of this century and that demonstrate the art of music criticism at its best.

The study affords further access to Einstein's writings by identifying the locations of Einstein collections in numerous libraries throughout the United States.;
