Good overview of Ralph Vaughan Williams

I've always thought that English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams and his brilliance was neglected by music lovers. This little guide just touches on his life and his compositions and after reading it, I have come to admire the man as well as the musician and composer. He was dedicated to learning all he could learn about music in order to further his composing. He met life head on and has written some truly wonderful pieces. This is a handy guide as well to all of his compositions.
