There is a later volume in this series: The Little Purple Ringing Book.

See the contents page

A trusty pocket guide for beginner bellringers, as you discover a fascinating art and a lifelong hobby. It explains the terms you’ll encounter and answers your questions as it introduces you to bells and change ringing, and helps you ring rounds and call changes.

If you want to progress to ringing methods – the ‘tunes’ of change ringing – the book is a collection of exercises, tips and explanations, from handling a bell to Plain Bob and Grandsire.

It’s useful for experienced ringers too – it features Kaleidoscope ringing, methods on three and four, and simple slow course, little, and place methods, so you’ll never be caught out or short of ideas again.

In the same series, for more experienced ringers, is The Little Purple Ringing Book.
