Hello David,<br>
<br>
Thank you for your order.<br>
<br>
It is not my intention to produce facsimile reprints of all 'County'
bell books. That would be a humungous task and I neither have the
desire nor the readies to fund such an undertaking. However,
Shropshire and Worcestershire may be possible depending upon their
size. Perhaps I'll have a go at putting together a single volume for
Lancashire at some time too.<br>
<br>
First though I need access to an original copy. That is always a vital
step. <br>
<br>
Unlike early general bell ringing books, the market for the county
books is even more limited. Having said that, I have orders for 15
copies of Church Bells of Cornwall and I have not even advertised it!<br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
<br>
Alan<br>

Whilst they may be "out of date" as to some present tower contents,
they recall a period in the history of the tower which is of interest
in its own right. Old "method" book reprints are to me at any rate no
substitute for the "feel" of the real thing. </font></div>

<p>Hello Everyone,<br>
<br>
Your assistance is needed with the next project.<br>
<br>
As the proposed facsimile of Troyte has received a lukewarm reception,
I am shelving it at this time and plan to do Stedman, 1903, by Rev.
Davies. As this was a Jasper Snowdon Change-Ringing Series item,
would there be any chance of a copyright problem or not? Input would
be most appreciated.<br>
<br>
Secondly, although not a 'general' ringing book, I'm preparing a
facsimile of 'The Church Bells of Cornwall' using the recently
advertised CD, with their permission.<br>
<br>
If anyone is interested, please let me know. <br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
<br>
Alan Ellis<br>
