This book is a cultural history of the nineteenth-century songster:
pocket-sized anthologies of song texts, usually without musical
notation. It examines the musical, social, commercial and aesthetic
functions songsters served and the processes by which they were
produced and disseminated, the repertory they included, and the
singers, printers and entrepreneurs that both inspired their
manufacture and facilitated their consumption. Taking an
international perspective, chapters focus on songsters from
Ireland, North America, Australia and Britain and the varied public
and private contexts in which they were used and exploited in oral
and print cultures.
