Rovings: Sea Songs and Ballads is a collection of traditional sea shanties and ballads compiled by Cicely Fox Smith and originally published in 1921. The book features lyrics and musical notation for over 60 songs, many of which were sung by sailors and fishermen during the age of sail. The songs cover a range of themes, from the joys and hardships of life at sea to tales of shipwrecks, piracy, and romance. The book also includes an introduction by the author, in which she discusses the history and significance of sea shanties and their role in maritime culture. With its authentic and evocative collection of songs, Rovings is a must-read for anyone interested in the rich heritage of maritime music and folklore.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
