Book excerpt: "Fresh as the breezes of that ocean to which they owe their inspiration, the 'chanties' and songs here collected come to us as a most interesting and unique contribution to our literature of the sea. For this volume contains no mere study-compilation of more or less authentic sea ditties, mingled with the nautical effusions of landsmen. It is original in its conception and execution. With one or two trifling exceptions, it is a collection of what may be styled 'the genuine article'--not the creation of landsmen written for or about sailors, but the actual 'working songs' of the sea that were in use at the present time. Still further, this book contains not merely the ditties of our own Jack Tars, but a selection of the sea-songs of nearly all maritime nations, translated and ably commented on, from a literary, musical, and nautical point of view, together with a good deal of interesting information regarding them." --Introductory note.

Download or read book Drive Dull Care Away written by Edward D. Ives and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many other folklorists of his time, the author started out as a folksinger--guitar, levis, and all--but it wasn't long before his folksinging led him to folksong collecting. This book is a record of that collecting in Prince Edward Island, starting with his memorable trip up the Western Road in 1957, accompanied by the legendary "Big Jim" Pendergast. Based on his journals, field recordings (fourteen of which are included on an accompanying CD), and a prodigious memory, the author has reconstructed those visits to Prince Edward Island. This book is not only a collection of folksongs from Canada's smallest province, but also an account of the people he met and the adventures he had along the way. Part social history, part memoir, this book explores a traditional culture on the cusp of dramatic change.
