The Story of the Bagpipe (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Story of the Bagpipe

In the following pages I have endeavoured to tell the story of the bagpipe, and to weave the known facts of its history into a connected narrative. For much kind help in preparing this volume I must express my indebtedness to Lord Castletown, Mr. W. J. Lawrence, the Rt. Hon. Dr. M. F. Cox, the late Dr. Watson, Mr. Henry Egan Kenny, Mr. Bruce Armstrong, Mr. F. J. Bigger, and Mr. J. J. Buckley.
