Life of Chopin

This book written by Hungarian composer Franz Liszt illustrates what romanticism is all about, which is not so much a biography of Chopin as it is a way to better understand Liszt and the environment of his time. Although critics of Liszt's book criticized it for various literary violations, it is not without its merits. There are many things worth learning about these two great pianists of all the time, Chopin and Liszt within its pages.
