Specialist stuff. 1 Jan 2012

By Chopper

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

The author takes the reader through the origin & history of sea shanties. In this I found some interesting snippets of information and it was presented in an organised & logical manner.
Then the rest of the book has the lyrics of many sea shanties. Unfortunately no music scores or other clues to the tune or melody.

This book might suit an historian or music teacher.

Good old shanties 5 Jan 2012

By Dotty

Format:Kindle Edition

I got this for my husband who likes poetry and he says its a good book. He knows some of the songs but would have liked the music to them.

Not what I expected 21 May 2012

Deleted this after 15minutes, not what I expected and no use to me. Format was hopeless and content not good either.

Basic - in fact, LESS than basic

A Stan Hugill resource this is NOT. There's no music, the text is abbreviated to the point of virtual unreability at times (use the 'Look Inside' option to judge for yourself). Read more
