Book Description
Excerpt from A Book of Highland Minstrelsy It is hoped that the brief introductions severally prefixed to the following poems will be found more convenient to the reader than the scattered footnotes which would otherwise have been necessary. They have no pretension to erudition, and, unless where they are the result of personal observation, have been drawn from such authorities as are most readily accessible, and as bear most directly upon the traditions, the sentiments, and the customs of a romantic people. The writer takes this opportunity to thank her Scottish friends for the local information so obligingly communicated, which has proved of material service.

Book Description
Excerpt from Monarchs of Minstrelsy, From Daddy Rice to Date Is Minstrelsy dying out? How often has the question been asked and how conflicting are the opinions of those who ought to know? Some maintain that minstrelsy is here to stay, while others insist there are no more minstrel shows. But if the question were: Are the minstrels dying out? There could be no divergence of opinion. The passing away in the last decade or so of such lumi naries as Neil. Bryant, Billy Rice, Billy West, Billy Emerson, Wm. Henry Rice, Frank Cushman Ben. Cotton, Johnny Booker, Jack Herman. Andy Leavitt. E. F. Dixey, J. B. Donniker, 'eugene J. H. Haverly, Sam. Hague, Dave Reed and many others, eliminate the matter of doubt entirely. Granting this. It would appear that the two terms: Minstrels and Minstrelsy are synonymous. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
