Traditional American Folk Songs from the Anne and Frank Warner Collection

Starting in the late 1930s, writer Anne and her husband and musician Frank Warner traveled along the Eastern Seaboard, from the Adirondacks to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, collecting folk songs they would perform, document, research, and lecture on. This decade-spanning work led to the Warners’ development of a nearly one-thousand-song archive, one of the defining collections of American folk music.

From that treasured archive, Traditional American Folk Songs from the Anne and Frank Warner Collection brings together nearly 200 of the Warners’ most beloved songs with a detailed history behind the music and lyrics. The book is uniquely organized by region and singer, allowing each of the voices to speak to the places they called home and the songs that could be heard there. Now updated with new photos, Traditional American Folk Songs is the definitive collection from the preeminent collectors of East Coast American folk music.
