A comprehensive collection of approximately 200 books on all aspects of bells and bell-ringing, being the working library of Hervey Bagot, who is in the process of down-sizing after more than 40 years as a professional campanologist
The books are in excellent condition; in most instances they were purchased new. The publications are in a wide range of languages - predominantly English, but also German, French, Dutch, and Italian, with the occasional one in Danish and Russian - reflecting the traditional origins of the subject-matter, but its nature is such that the various languages present no real barrier to deriving value from these items. The technical aspects of bells and bell-ringing, as well as the photogenic nature of bells and their towers, steeples and belfries, lend themselves to learning on the job ... A list of titles in the collection is available on request.
