Sandy Paton Help: A Grant for Mountain Music (23) RE: Help: A Grant for Mountain Music 26 Feb 02


There are something like seven volumes (I have five of them - the songs, the ballads, the tunes of the songs, and the tunes of the ballads, plus one on superstitions)) which should be available in any good North Carolina library. Your NC friend should be able to find them. You might have to ask for help from your librarian and the inter-library loan system, if you're not in North Carolina. Otherwise, you might try to use a good college library nearby. I always tried to live near a good University library and arranged to get permission to use it through some staff acquaintance. When I moved to the boonies, I had to invest in building a library of my own! With the incredible increase in the asking price for most of the older, now out-of-print folklore publications, I'm glad I bought so many of them a long time ago!
