With its rich collection of traditional songs and poems, ""Chanteys And Ballads"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in folk music and the history of traditional songwriting.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
