I have it - excellent book! Another good book is "Charles Ives: "My Father`s Song": A Psychoanalytic Biography" by Stuart Feder.

I've always been a bit of a Charles Ives enthusiast. I've visited his home and family cemetery in Danbury CT. As for performances, I've preferred Michael Tilson Thomas, although I thoroughly enjoyed the 2nd symphony conducted by Leonard Bernstein.
