Pub Year 1920, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> This book, The Pipes of War, authored by Bruce Seton Grant, serves as a historical record highlighting the significant role of pipers during the First World War (1914-1918). It aims to acknowledge the extraordinary feats accomplished by these musicians in the face of formidable challenges, as they maintained the rich traditions of Scottish piping amidst the chaos of modern warfare. The narrative is not intended to evoke sentimentality but rather to present a factual account of how the ancient instrument of the bagpipes contributed profoundly to the battlefield's orchestration.The work reveals that, despite the efforts of a highly skilled enemy and the harsh realities of the battlefield, pipers?whether Highlanders, Lowlanders, or Scots from overseas?consistently performed acts of bravery. Their contributions were not occasional but rather habitual, which underscores the importance of their presence. The book notes the profound loss the pipers faced, with 500 killed and 600 wounded, emphasising the urgent need for the preservation and continuation of this musical heritage. It stresses that the future of piping hinges on raising a new generation of players, making it a vital national endeavour for Scotland and beyond.To honour the legacy of fallen pipers and to ensure the survival of piping traditions, the Piobaireachd Society plans to establish a Memorial School of piping. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be directed to support this initiative, thus serving as both a tribute to the sacrifices made and a proactive step towards safeguarding Scotland?s musical heritage for future generations.
