This  book  provides  20  beautiful  Anglo-American  folk  songs,  field  collected  by  the  remarkable  real  life  "song  catchers,"  Josephine  McGill  and  Loraine  Wyman,  who  was  accompanied  by  Howard  Brockway.  Together  they  discovered  many  English  and  Scottish  ballads  in  remote  areas  of  the  Cumberland  Mountains  during  the  early  1900's.  This  book  contains  a  selection  of  the  songs,  presented  with  simplified  musical  notation,  guitar  chords,  and  dulcimer  tablature.  It  also  includes  glowing  accounts  of their  mountain  adventures,  published  by  McGill  and  Brockway  in  long  forgotten  publications.  This  folio  is  a  must-have  for  all  lovers  of  American  folk  music.
