The Change-Ringers' Guide to the Steeples of England is a book written by John Edward Acland-Troyte and originally published in 1879. The book is a comprehensive guide to the steeples of England, written specifically for change-ringers - individuals who ring the bells in church towers for religious and celebratory purposes. The book contains detailed descriptions of the architecture, history, and bells of over 100 steeples across England, including some of the most famous and iconic structures, such as St. Paul's Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. The author provides information on the number of bells in each steeple, their weight, and the musical notes they produce when rung. In addition to the technical information, the book also includes anecdotes and stories about the change-ringing community and their experiences ringing the bells in different steeples. The author's passion for change-ringing and the steeples of England is evident throughout the book, and it serves as a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of this unique tradition.With An Appendix, Containing Information On Many Subjects Interesting To The Exercise.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
