4.0 out of 5 stars
Very good book, avoids most of the pseudo-historical romance, Sep 15 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bagpipes (Paperback)
Very good resource, excellent descriptions and images of pipes in museum's holdings. Covers pipes from around the world, includes historical information. Avoids most of the pseudo-historical drivel that often obscures the actual use and history of the Highland pipes, as well as revealing to many for the first time that there are bagpipes from places other than Scotland. All in all, an excellent book!

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent!, Sep 13 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bagpipes (Paperback)
This is probably the most well-researched books on bagpipes available in English. It covers bagpipes from all over the world, not just the British Isles, and gives a great deal of technical information concerning their construction and tuning. It is a reprint of an older edition (with changes), so some of the photos are a bit dated, but nonetheless very informative and clear. If you are interested in the history of the bagpipe get this book.
