Texas Folk Songs

By William A. Owens and Jessie Owens

Book Overview

This collection of songs began, William A. Owens tells us, with those sung in his home in the Pin Hook community, "where ballads and songs and spirituals seeped as easily as words" into his memory. Collecting became a serious project with him in his last college year, when he began a study of Texas play-party songs.
