1INTRODUCTION.
3So much has been written upon the violin, its history, its development, its beauties as a musical instrument, its musical literature, &c., that a collection of all the works to which it has given rise would form almost a library of themselves. Its history has been ably treated in a German work called "Die Violine, Ihre Geschichte und Ihr Bau." The only work, however, as yet given to English readers, I believe, which treats fully and concisely of the numerous details involved in making a violin, is the very fine but expensive work of Mr. Ed. Heron-Allen—a work complete in itself, but perhaps too costly for some who would like to try their hand at fabricating a fiddle.
