5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference guide for organists

This book is a great guide to the common and not-so-common stops on pipe organs found throughout the world. I remember waiting almost a year or so for my copy to arrive from a book locating agency in the early 1990's.

It's the most comprehensive guide I have seen to this date.
