This is one of the best books I've read in a while!
I devoured this as an audiobook over a 8 hour road trip, followed immediately by a recording of the symphony. The author's passion for not only Beethoven and classical music, but also history and this era in particular, shone throughout each section. There was a portion where Sachs goes into great detail about the specifics of the music; much of that admittedly went over my head but I still found it fascinating.
