Includes a plot summary, brief history, and list of selected recordings for each ballad! At the end of the 19th century, Harvard professor Francis James Child published a collection of 305 traditional English and Scottish ballads that would influence folk tradition and popular culture for decades to come. Presented here are those Child Ballads that have become most widely known around the world. While the songs themselves may be centuries old, the stories they tell are timeless. So go forth now and enjoy these tales of kings, queens, serving men and maidens, spirits, demons and guardian angels; of redemption, betrayal, avengement and loss, and, of course... MAD LOVE, MURDER & MAYHEM.
