New York: International Publishers, 1970. 433 pp, 8vo (8" H). "(E)mbodies the results of a lifetime of study by one of England's leading folklorists, concerning the relationship of the evolution of English folk song style and the evolution of English society. Lloyd skillfully traces how, after primitive development of ritual song and, much later, of the epic ballad, lyrical song began to flourish with the growth of the towns and of merchant society, culminating in the new song forms of industrial society. Subsidiary themes concern the structure of English folk melody, with special consideration of modal music, of the decorative art of English singers and of the relationship with the folk song of other nations. Over 100 musical illustrations (examples)."
