The excellent Ian Huckin of Banbury Folk Club is working like a trojan to produce a printable version of this influential and seminal book.
I does not look like it will be ready for Whitby but Clive Boutle can take pre-orders on https://francisboutle.co.uk/
It will have a new cover and will finally take its place in the Marrowbones book series.
It is surprising how many of the songs are still unsung, and also what new information is contained in the notes. The latest reprint is a tribute to the late Malcolm Douglas and the great Frank Purslow.
It will be well worth a second look and will ensure that the songs are passed down to generations to come.
