Louisiana French Folk Songs

By Irène Thérèse Whitfield
$3.50
LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS
A MOST interesting collection of regional folk songs, French, Cajun-French, and Creole. It smells a bit like an academic thesis, but, unlike most such, it is based on documentation that has value for the general reader. It is an excellent example of the kind of research which should be pushed energetically in this country, wherever there is a field for it.
