"The Complete Organist" is a detailed guide to the organ by Harvey Grace, with historical information and comprehensive descriptions, explanations, and instructions related to playing. Easy-to-digest and full of interesting and practical information, this timeless volume will be of considerable utility to both existing and prospective players alike, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature.
