4.0 out of 5 stars
Very good book, avoids most of the pseudo-historical romance,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bagpipes (Occasional papers on technology) (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!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bagpipes (Occasional papers on technology) (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.
