Bring history alive with this wonderful book! The four year Civil War period resulted in the deaths of over 600,000 people, but left an incredible musical legacy. There are over 100 songs in this collection, several including lyrics of the southern as well as the northern soldiers, set to the same tune. They are divided into several categories in this book, with songs of the union, the confederacy, Lincoln, universal sentiments, soldier's songs, battles, negro spirituals and abolitionist songs, songs on the lighter side, and post bellum songs. The music tells stories of the war: some heartwarming, and some heart-wrenching, along with photographs and drawings. Most every Civil War buff, singer, pianist or guitar player will find music to enjoy in this collection of historical pieces.
Arranged By: This piece was arranged by Jerry Silverman.
Published By: "Ballads & Songs Of The Civil War" was published by Mel Bay Publications.
