It's a jolly good read -
I recommend this book to you.
Anthony Rooley
The Consort of Musicke

This is the best kind of "historical" book, written with loving scholarship by a practitioner of the ancient music that he tells us about with such knowledge and humour. The centuries-old story of the Waites of York written by one of the famous York Waits of today. Who could want more?
the late David Kossoff (Actor)

Painstakingly researched - this book, in telling the history of the York Waites not only reveals a music story but gives yet a further reminder that the history of York is, indeed, the history of England.
Malcolm J. Heppell,
Lord Mayor of York, 1987-8
