Her richly detailed examination of itinerant troupes covers orchestral and choral musicians as well as stars, impresarios, business methods, repertories, advertising techniques, itineraries, sizes of companies, and methods of travel."Preston, Katherine K. is the author of 'Opera on the Road Traveling Opera Troupes in the United States, 1825-60' with ISBN 9780252070020 and ISBN 025207002X.
