Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lancashire Lyrics: Modern Songs and Ballads of the County Palatine
The pleasurable duty remains Of thanking all those to whom, far more than to the Editor, this volume owes its ex istence. He has merely gathered the ?owers Of Lancashire song into a garland. Theirs is the fragrance of these poetic blossoms; theirs the rich and varied tints that delight the eye. TO thank each individually by name would be Simply to repeat the table of contents; and he can therefore only tender to one and all, his most grateful thanks for the court eons and ready kindness with which they have acceded to his request. To the surviving representatives of deceased writers, and to various publishing firms holding copyrights, he must take leave, in like manner, to tender his Sincere acknowledgments.
