But one superb book has been overlooked so far -  Andre Lehr's "Art of the 
Carillon in the Low Countries". Probably the most  authoritative and 
lavishly-produced book yet produced about bells
 
Dalton's "Dorset" vies with it - and wind, of  course, as far as an English 
title goes
 
Also, don't overlook Jones/ Ingram "Belfry Life  in Birmingham" (John Day's 
recollections) - a great read, and now nicely  illustrated too



I agree with Chris - Andre Lehr's book is one of my most treasured  ringing 
books - in fact I have a spare copy if anyone is after one.
 
Daltons Dorset is still my number one, and I like DLC's Channel Islands  too.
 
See most of you at the roadshow,
