Publisher's Synopsis

Ballads of All Nations is a collection of traditional songs and ballads from various countries around the world, compiled by the British writer George Borrow. The book includes ballads from England, Scotland, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Russia, Poland, Hungary, Greece, Turkey, and several other countries. Each ballad is presented in its original language and accompanied by an English translation, as well as notes on its historical and cultural context. Borrow's aim in compiling this collection was to provide an insight into the diverse cultures and traditions of different nations through their music. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in folk music and world culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
