THIS work of lyric literature and song lore provides histories, as far as possible accurate, of some of the world's most famous and popular songs and ballads (as of circa 1900), gathered from all sorts of available sources, books, magazines, and newspapers, and living representatives and friends of deceased writers. Many of the particulars as to origin, authorship, and outcome of several of the ballads and pieces here appear in print for the first time; while nothing has been set down without due investigation and confirmation of the veracity of the various details and statements. This is Volume 1 of 2 , Volume 2 can be found HERE.
This is another of my scan and OCR products so please excuse the few weirdnesses you will find.
