[LEN-E] Bach's Book & Thanks for replies

verifiable references for so many things which we do know to be true, 
and in the process
he can then throw in the odd opinion (presented as "fact")



Ron, its almost uncanny that you mention this.  I'm currently reading 
Bach, and several times I have exclaimed to myself the exact thing you 
say above.   After many satisfying references, suddenly there will be a 
provocative statement thrown in with no attributed source!  It seems 
somewhat inconsistent, and is a bit frustrating for readers who want 
substantiation.

My copy of Rother arrived just today (I'm finally catching up on my 
reading!).   What did you all think of the Rother book?

Best wishes,
John

(PS:  A word of thanks to Thomas and Luc who posted responses to my 
questions about Leni's home studio space, and about the english 
translation of Memoiren.  I was away from the computer last week so I 
failed to say how much I appreciated their responses! Thanks to you both!)
