This is a collection of humorous ballads and songs by the British dramatist and librettist W. S. Gilbert. The Bab Ballads are witty and satirical, poking fun at various aspects of Victorian society, from the legal system to the social elite. The songs of a Savoyard are from Gilbert's collaborations with the composer Arthur Sullivan, and include some of their most famous works, such as 'The Mikado' and 'HMS Pinafore'. This is a delightful book for anyone who loves Gilbert and Sullivan, or who enjoys Victorian humor.
