Concentrates on the people who have played both German and Anglo-German instruments from the time of its invention to the present, and includes chapters on England, Ireland, Africa (both Boers and various African ethnic groups), Australia, New Zealand, and North America, as well as concertina use at Sea. A final chapter deals with the fascinating evolution in playing styles from Victorian times to today in these various locales, including note-for-note transcriptions of many early recorded players from around the globe, which should prove very useful to a wide spectrum of concertina players.
