Review
"This ambitious book describes the roles and fortunes of a largely unrecognized industry of the past -- the 19th-century reed organ industry -- by simultaneously placing it within a broad assessment of the history and culture of its time. Waring's handling of the multiple associations and roles of the reed organ within Victorian life is both subtle and revealing."-- (Paul Theberge, author of Any Sound You Can Imagine ) --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
