Military Bagpipe Music 1650-1959

£20.00

In this absorbing book, military historian, amateur piper and former member of the Piobaireachd Society, Diana Henderson describes the ways in which the great Highland bagpipe was taught in the British Army from 1650 to 1959.

By quoting from original sources, the author then brings to life the extraordinary efforts of the Piobaireachd Society in establishing and then supporting the ‘Army Class’, the foundation for today’s Army School of Piping. The book includes a range of historic photographs and lists the early students of the Army School under P/M Willie Ross.
