A small book by Ken Gaines; quite different to the usual organ-related books - not technical, not about tuning, music, nor organists as such and not authoritative.
It is a sample collection of anecdotes and observations, some humorous, some less so and some cautionary.
These were accumulated during 25 years as a seasonal organ tuner's assistant.
Foreword by Jonathan Holl. Some of the material appeared in The Berkshire Organist between 2012 and 2019.
"...a lovely addition to anyone's organ book collection ... ideal size for slipping into your pocket."
- Guy Russell, retired Tonal Director of Nicholson & Co. Ltd, organ builders
