Old Violins is a book written by Hugh Reginald Haweis and published in 1898. The book is a comprehensive guide to the history, construction, and maintenance of violins, violas, cellos, and other stringed instruments.

The book also delves into the different types of wood used in the construction of violins and the importance of proper maintenance to ensure their longevity. Haweis provides detailed instructions on how to care for and repair violins, including tips on restringing, adjusting the bridge, and repairing cracks. Additionally, the book includes a section on famous violinists and their instruments, as well as a glossary of musical terms.
