HEART SONGS 1909 HB FREE Shipping

" HEART SONGS is more than a collection of music - it is a book
compiled directly by twenty thousand people, who not only sent in
their favorite songs, but in accompanying letters told how these
songs had been interwoven with the story of their own lives.
All have been sent in by men and women who loved them; who
cared little for the prizes but desired to add a truly worthy
contribution to the collection of Heart Songs. The personal
associations of these melodies add to the familar words of a
new thrill of heart interest. Each song recalls to the individual
reader some tender, sad, joyous or martial association. It is a
book which will be to American musical literature what "Heart Throbs"
is to prose and verse. "
