Press Reviews
"Rivalry, romance, jealousy, generational change: the Boosey story is a ripping yarn worthy of a novel, if not a grand opera… Wallace's racy digest shows us how backroom businessmen continue to shape musical history."
Financial Times Magazine
"Scandal, feuding and fraud... Who would have thought that the inside story had all the trappings of a bestseller?"
The Scotsman
"...a surprisingly gripping narrative. For those who wonder what really goes on in music publishing, it offers a fascinating read."
BBC Music Magazine
"A full-length exposé, immaculately researched, that brings the various figures both in front and behind the scenes to life."
Classic FM Magazine
