Subject: RE: Songs of hardship and oppression???
The book that I have is packed away in a box somewhere so I can't say exactly when it was printed.

I bought my first copy of it way back in the early to mid Seventies. It was a paperback and got so well used that it fell apart.

I was lucky enough to find a used hardcover copy at 'The Booklegger' in Huntsville, AL.
When I moved to Pennsylvania it got packed and I haven't been able to unearth it yet.
It's titled "Songs of Peace, Freedom and Protest"

He also wrote a couple of other great books, one I think was titled simply "Folk Songs" and the other "Guitar"

I lent out my copy of each of these to different friends and I guess they found good homes because they stayed 'lent'.

I don't know why I keep doing that.
