The Music of the Waters - A Collection of the Sailors' Chanties, or Working Songs of the Sea, of All Maritime Nations; Boatmen's, Fishermen's, and Rowing Songs, and Water Legends #221389

Of course, in language and sentiment, some of these ditties are not all that could be desired, but the work being a collection of curious and genuine sea-songs as t/iey exist not as they would be, the task of selection and translation must have been one of considerable difficulty, and seems to have been ably and judiciously accomplished.
