This book explains for the layman and the beginner what change-ringing is about , why it is unique to Britain, and how it was developed. St James has an active band of ringers and new members are always welcome. Although bronze bells are mostly indestructible, the many mechanical parts which enable the bell to ring, and the supporting bell frame, are not. The Salvation Army has volunteer opportunities for bell ringers for their Red Kettle Campaign.
