[Bell Historians] Tintinnalogia by Echo Library

[Alan Ellis]

Hello Everyone,

Has anyone else purchased a copy of 'Tintinnalogia, or, the Art of 
Ringing' (by) Richard Duckworth and Fabian Stedman, 2007?   No, not my 
facsimile edition.   :-)

I've just received  my copy from the USA.  Echo Library is the publisher 
and they are located in Teddington, Middlesex..

I just wanted to see what they had done and how it is presented.   The 
cost was about US$25.00.  Somewhat cheaper than my recent facsimile 
addition.

It is obviously a soft cover book (15 x 23 cm) with high gloss printing 
on the covers and bound using the 'quick binding' method.

It is in present day English as opposed to the 1668/1671 English of the 
originals and facsimile editions.

What I find strange is that there is no title page indicating the date 
of the original.  The only reference is to 2007!    Anyone not knowing 
the difference would presume that Duckworth and Stedman are modern authors.

A cost-effective book for a tower library.

Best wishes

Alan Ellis
