Y'know, now that I think on it, I've acquired almost all of my knowledge about classical history from patchwork sources - my mother was an art/music major in college, so I absorbed some of it through osmosis, and did a couple of reports on composers in school, plus had a really excellent elementary-level music teacher who got me interested in modern classical music especially. So I'm drawing a blank on actual reading material. But let me ask my mother and get back to you. :)
