Shanties from the Seven Seas: Shipboard Work-Songs and Some Songs Used as Work-Songs from the Great Days of Sail

Description:

This book contains not only more than 400 sea shanties but as much of their history as Stan Hugill could collect in his extraordinary career as sailor, scholar, author, artist, and inspiration to new generations of sea-music enthusiasts and performers.

Review:

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the absolute source guide for shanty fans!

This is exactly what any fan of Maritime music should have on their desk. It is a book written by a master of the genre. Don't think that the songs in Assassin's Creed 4 are what it's about! This is the definitive volume to refer to.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book of Sea Chanteys that I've read.

N.5. · September 25, 2018

I sent this used book to a friend, so I assume it's in good shape. I started studying Sea Chanteys in about 1988, and quickly realized this is the best and most complete book of them that there is. Over 100 chanteys, with sometimes 4 or 5 variations of each, depending what port they were leaving/entering, etc. Hugill wrote 2 other books full of chanteys ("Songs of the Sea" has them in many different languages), but they are out-of-print and hard-to-find. There are other good authors out there - Colcord, Doerflinger, Frothingham, Palmer, etc (make sure it has the melodies; some don't) - but this one is the best.
