We learn a lot about our past by examining the songs. This volume is a collection of songs and ballads from the frontier days when the West was still wild. Many of these were sung around the campfire, or to the cattle to soothe them at night. Some, more bawdy than others, were oft heard wafting out of the bat-wing doors of the saloon. All have their own, special place in history, and all should be remembered and sung again. Maybe, in reading these, we can recapture a little of the glory of those years gone by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
