Tom Glazer - A Treasury of Civil War Songs (Audio CD, 2011)

Songs with a good tune and rousing lyrics both mirrored and inspired the events of the American Civil War (1861-1865). They told tales of battle, slavery, emancipation, victory, and defeat, and a century and a half later, they enshrine the shattered brotherhood of a nation and the lessons taught by war. Popular American folksinger Tom Glazer (1914-2003) knew a good tune when he heard one, and on A Treasury of Civil War Songs, Glazer's crystal clear voice spins out classic songs that made history, while historian Patrick Warfield s liner notes take us deeper into the history that made the songs. 25 tracks, 58 minutes and 20+ page booklet with extensive notes and historical photos.
