Description:

A reference source about one aspect of American history and record-keeping: the state song. Organized alphabetically by state, it features a reproduction of the sheet music for the state song and a brief history of the song, with details about its composition, adoption and legislative life.

Synopsis:

Histories of these songs, biographical information about the composers and lyricists, and background on each song's entrance into status as 'official' make this source the most comprehensive in existence. The entries include sheet music, allowing readers to reproduce for themselves the tunes that have proved so important in the history of the Union.
