I was too young then..... now I begin to wonder, if anyone has access to such a volume.
Since it is still under copyright, I shall not ask for a digital format.
Could those who have access comment..... is It worth getting?? I mean, is it dispensable or indispensable to develop an all-rounded technique? How would you compare it with, let's say, Dohnanyi or M Long type of exercise book??
I took a look at the five sample pages of the link..... it appears to be mechanical exercise rather than etudes...
