Music, an Illustrated History di Max Wade-Matthews

Previously known as 'World Encyclopedia of Musical Instruments', this is a good instruction book to junior students of music. It explains and has clear illustrations of musical instruments from around the world. Historical content is good but brief.

The Encyclypedia of Music: Instruments of the… di Max Wade-Matthews

I have enjoyed this book for its illustrations and completeness. It covers an enormous variety of composers and musical instruments including the human voice. It only lacks the most modern developments in pop music but that is not the stated scope of the book.
