Thread Name: Lyr Add: Christmas Folksong (Paul Laurence Dunbar)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: A Christmas FolkSong - P.L. Dunbar
Nineteen of Dunbar's poems from "Howdy, Honey, Howdy" (1905) are on this Wright State University website. Each of the songs is accompanied by three of Miner's fine photographs. Christmas folk song

Kat, how many poems and how many photographs by Miner are in the book, "Howdy..."? I wonder if the website has reproduced all of the poems and photos. Look at "Faith," this made me hungry for a 'go'geous yallah yam,' and I am going to the store to look for one.

I can't find any music for the Christmas song on Google. Not at "Hymns and Carols for Christmas."

Emory University subscribers may access all of Dunbar's collected poetry on line.
