Looking for anything in the way of a biography for Fiske. Book, link, blurb...anything, really.

Thanks, folks.

Hi-
Check out Robert Eliason's book 'Early American Brass Makers'--pub. by Brass Press(?)--good luck.

There is the Cornet Compendium,
Horn-u-copia, and
through Margaret Downie Banks' 'A Brief History of the Conn Company (1874-present)*' you may be able to get to stuff from the National Music Museum in Vermillion, South Dakota (among others).
