Download or read book Christmas Songs And Their Stories written by Eunice Wernecke Anderson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2005-11-30 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may visit the author's website at www.christmassongsandtheirstories.com. CHRISTMAS SONGS AND THEIR STORIES is an invitingly written and thoroughly interesting selection of facts about Christmas songs from different countries and different racial backgrounds. In addition to presenting the complete words, with variations in some cases, of 54 songs, it gives the origins of the songs, the stories of the writers and composers wherever possible, and offers pertinent information on where music for the songs may be found today. Here is a book for those who enjoy Christmas music and like to read how different peoples at different times have expressed the spirit that makes this holy day so well loved. It will also be warmly appreciated by those who have been aware that there has been no other book available dealing with more than half a dozen or a dozen of Christmas songs, their history, special characteristics, content, or suitability for use in special ways. Included in this outstanding collection are such beautiful and widely varying songs as “Away in a Manger”; “Watchman, Tell Us of the Night”; “The Boar’s Head Carol”; “Go, Tell It on the Mountains”; “O Holy Night!”; “Brahms’s Cradle Song (Christmas Version)”; and many others—familiar songs such as “O Come, All Ye Faithful” and “Deck the Halls,” and such unusual ones as “He Became Incarnate,” a Christmas carol in India. The international flavor of the book is vividly emphasized with the “National and racial grouping” of selections given at the end of the volume, while such little known facts as the symbolic meaning of the holly and the ivy, and anecdotes connected with the traditions of certain songs, help bring unusual interest to the book. The careful scholarship and convenient arrangement of the material make the book of particular value to church and Sunday school workers, ministers, and leaders of nonchurch groups preparing Christmas programs. The appealing stories of the creation of some of the world’s best-loved music and poetry make it a book to be appreciated and used not only on Christmas time, but during the rest of the year, and not only as a dependable volume reference and information, but as source of pure enjoyment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry By Wayside, Wayside Poetry And Quotations by Wayside. ORIGINAL POEMS and Proverbs by Wayside (William McFarland), as well as some quotations NEVER before published into a book along with SCANNED IMAGES (photos) of the original handwriting by Wayside from the late 1800s. A part of American history from the 19th Century here we have some 19th Century Poetry. This American poetry collection of American literature can tell us more about the era of the time they were written. If you want to find out what an event was like, one can read the poems which have been written about it.These Wayside poems are over 123 years old. All these American poems were written prior to 1887. They are of general themes as well as poems about American communities, family and friends.The poems and quotations inside this paperback, printed book were originally written over 123 years ago by a Union Officer in the Civil War whose real name was William McFarland. Wayside was his pen name. This is why the author's name is Wayside. Wayside's poems were kept in his handwritten notebook for over 123 years and passed down from one generation to another. These American poems were written by my Civil War Ancestor in the 19th Century.These WAYSIDE POEMS, Proverbs and Quotations were written sometime in the late 1800s although the exact years are unknown. William McFarland died suddenly in 1887 and so all of the poetry in this poetry collection was written prior to that year. William McFarland was my great, great, great grandfather. He was a writer and a school teacher. It was the dream of this Union Officer in the United States Civil War to have his poetry collection printed into a book but he did not live long enough to accomplish this task and so I am doing just that.I only wish William McFarland and my family could know that his POETRY is being published and printed into a book.This is Book Two of Four of "Poetry By Wayside" authored by Wayside.Anyone that enjoys old handwriting would probably really value the images of his beautiful, elegant old handwriting inside this book. By viewing the scanned images pages one can see the torn edges on some of the pages of the original manuscript. Anyone that collects anything old from the 19th Century would probably appreciate its value.Those that are interested in genealogy and family history may really enjoy reading this poetry book. Anyone that enjoys the 1800s, history or the Civil War period may be fascinated to read these poems thinking they were written in the late 1800s by a poet of the Civil War. The poems in this book along with their scanned images are thus a part of American history.The titles of the poetry in this book are:CarrieCarrie LodemaFour Little BellesFour O'ClockHard TimesHard To PleaseHe Hated A LiarHe Swallowed CrowHow I Became A TeetotallerIreneI Told You SoJeemsJudge NotKansasMy Native LandMy Old FriendMy Old Hoosier HomeNeponsetNeponset's Grand BazaarPeerless TwainSchool OutThe PicknickersThe Star of BethlehemQuotations include:The River Without A BridgeThe EditorA Toast Our County NewspapersProverbsThese Wayside poems are like an eye witness of how life was back then from one who actually was there and lived it. Although the poems may not be factual they do paint the reader a picture of how life might have been in the late 1800s.
