Jolly Sailors Bold: Ballads and Songs of the American Sailor is a
major anthology of folk songs and parlor songs excavated from
nine-teenth-century sailors' shipboard journals. The
author-editor-compiler is Stuart M. Frank, senior curator of the
world-famous New Bedford Whaling Museum, executive director
emeritus of the Kendall Whaling Museum, and renowned authority on
sailor songs and shipboard music. The product of more than thirty
years of research, this book features authentic historic renditions
of more than two hundred songs, with texts recovered unchanged from
historic nineteenth-century shipboard manuscripts, here reunited
with their original melodies.
