About this book
Songs of the Sea & Sailor's Chanteys
Author: Robert Frothingham
Year: 1924
Collectors book of Sea Shanties Printed 1924, By Houghton Mifflin Company Reprinted 1969 by arrangement. "It is eminently fitting that the Sailors’ Chanteys - eloquent of a day that is past never to return - should be recorded here with the music to which they were sung a hundred years ago. Not a harbour in either the eastern or the western hemisphere but has rung to these ancient airs. They have broken the silences of tropic seas and mingled with the howl of the tempest off Cape Horn. Such melodies can never die, ghosts though they be of a bygone day."
