Um den Bodensee herum ist der 1777 in Mittenwald geborene Augustin Sumser eine Legende. Nach der Flucht aus dem Priesterseminar geht er bei einem Geigenbauer in Mittenwald - und bei den Frauen - in die Lehre. Dieser Lehrzeit verdankt er auch seine Leidenschaft: Nach einer Liebesnacht schenkt ihm eine englische Lady als Andenken eine Spieldose, und der Zauber dieses Instruments lässt ihn auch während seiner unerwarteten diplomatischen Karriere nicht mehr los. Horst Wolfram Geißler erzählt die amüsante und abenteuerliche Lebensgeschichte des 'Lieben Augustin' vor dem Hintergrund der napoleonischen Kriege auf eine so leichte und dennoch fesselnde Art, dass man den Spieldosenbauer und Lebenskünstler gerne selbst kennen gelernt hätte.
