Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This 1996 work on the history of organs built in England between AD 900 and the time of publication describes the most significant instruments of each period together with details of their builders, set against a background of changing fashions in music and liturgy.

Written in an elegant, entertaining, and informed manner, the book is a vital and much-needed addition to current organ literature.
