Book
Cecil Sharp (1859-1924) dedicated his life to collecting folk songs and dances from the English countryside, and to reinstating them in the cultural life of the nation. As a result of his work, these songs are now familiar to people in all walks of life, and the dances have spread far beyond the village communities in which they were formerly practised. The author was for many years Cecil Sharp's assistant.
