One of the great music reference books of all time
For many years, I have used a library copy of this book for guidance in the history of selected songs and had to endure catching colds from all of the patrons! Now that this book is firmly in my possession, it has proven its worth many times over. Everything is plainly within reach. Songs titles, who wrote them and when--this is the essential information any music scholar would need!
