Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Church Bells of England Many books have already been published on the subject of Church Bells, and in particular those of England, but as yet there hardly exists an adequate manual of the subject; much that has been written being now out of date, or lacking in comprehensiveness, or marred by superficial and inaccurate treatment. The present volume is an attempt by one who has made our Church Bells his special study for over twenty years, to set forth within a convenient compass the more important aspects of a subject which from its many-sidedness and its still living interest appeals perhaps to a more extensive class of readers than any other branch of English archaeology. The writer owes a special debt of gratitude to Mr. Francis Bond, the editor of this series, for the valuable assistance he has rendered in the collection of material and illustrations for the work, for help in the revision of the Ms. and proofs, and for many useful suggestions as to its form and appearance. The Rev. Canon Nolloth of Beverley has kindly revised the earlier chapters, and contributed much information of value. Thanks are also due to the Rev. Preb. Deedes of Chichester for assistance in compiling the bibliography, and to Mr. A. Hughes of the Whitechapel foundry for sundry useful information. The illustrations in the text are mainly taken from older publications, or from blocks and photographs in the possession of the writer.
