This book is a book that describes brass instruments and their uses around the world. It tells about the pitches and volumes of the "family" members and how they work. Basic illustrations accompany  the text making the descriptions easier to understand. This would be an excellent book to introduce various instrument groups, either in a music class or beginner band. It seems to be part of a series. There is an AR test for this book.
