The second volume in Pete Stewart's history of Lowland piping pieces together the story of the bagpipe in the Lowlands from its heyday to its decline It is a detective story too, using contemporary sources and long-forgotten images to reclaim history from legend and like all good detective stories, it has a twist in the tail. Includes more than 120 tunes from 18th century manuscripts and rare publications.
