Colonial & Revolution Songbook (American History Through Folksong)
Grade 4-7-Covering the 17th and 18th centuries, the American Revolution, and the War of 1812, the McNeils have chosen 39 traditional songs and provided each with brief historical commentary. Each song includes a melody line and guitar chords. The black-and-white line drawings are historical reproductions from the featured periods. A cassette recorded by the McNeils is available.
