Autobiography written in 1763 provides first-hand account of the benefits and the perils of aristocratic patronage and the often hazardous rites of passage which served as the training ground for aspiring professional violinists of that century. This English translation of the holograph preserves the tone of the original, and Lee's annotations support the text with additional factual material.
