CADMUS EDSivumäärä: 311 sivuaAsu: Kovakantinen kirjaJulkaisuvuosi: 2007, 01.11.2007 (lisätietoa)Kieli: Englanti Jill Johnston has written a magisterial biography of her father, the English bellfounder Cyril F. Johnston (1884-1950), an homage to his life and the craft of bellfounding. During his time, he developed such a passion for his vocation that, almost single-handedly, he turned it into a profession celebre. Exemplars of his triumphs are the Laura Spelman Rockefeller 72-bell Carillon at Riverside Church in New York City, and the Peace Tower 53-bell carillon in Ottawa, Canada.
