Publisher's Synopsis

The work of a wealthy radical, this book enjoyed immense circulation in schools throughout the English speaking world for many years. The important preface presents new arguments for the teaching of music in schools; and the collection of children's songs which follows established the Moral Song as standard fare in 19th-century classrooms.

About the Publisher

Boethius Press

Boydell & Brewer Ltd was formed in 1978. It merged two companies, Boydell Press and D.S. Brewer, whose founders, Richard Barber and Derek Brewer, were themselves scholars - Brewer a Chaucer specialist and subsequently Professor of English and Master of Emmanuel College, Barber a medieval historian and Arthurian. Richard Barber is still a highly active scholar and continues to publish eminently in his own right and offers a vast amount of knowledge and experience to Boydell & Brewer.
