Review: This is the book for pipers who are about to buy bagpipes or who just purchased pipes! The book offers a great foundation for understanding the parts of a bagpipe and how to care for them.  It has very nice information on tying in a hide bag and working with cane and synthetic drone reeds, things pipers should know.  This is the kind of information all novice pipers need and most struggle to find.  The intimidation many pipers feel at the prospect of tying in a pipe bag, manipulating a pipe chanter reed, blowing the pipes, and tuning the drones will be eased after viewing this instructional manual.
