Excerpt from Standard Methods in the Art of Change Ringing
So great a favourite has my brother's book, Standard Methods, been in the past that no apology need be made for this fifth edition.
As, however, it has proved necessary to greatly revise the work, some explanation is due to those who may feel disappointed in not securing the same set of methods which have been heretofore in circulation.
It has long been known - even to my brother in his life-time - that many superior methods might have been chosen, but alterations have been postponed time after time for the sake of uniformity in fact, the book has been viewed, latterly, more as a text book for the learner than as an authority on the point of what should constitute a sound method.
