Stories of Famous Songs by S. J. Adair Fitz-Gerald is an encyclopedia of song and lyric history and lore for music from all over the world. In an attempt to "produce an entertaining, amusing, and instructive work that shall appeal to the hearts and sympathies of all true lovers of songs with music," Fitz-Gerald presents a book full of useful and interesting information for musicians, historians, and individuals intrigued by the stories behind popular music. Each story, without exception, is interesting, surprising, and tells a completely unique tale of the inspiration, process, and journey of some of our most beloved songs. Fitz-Gerald researched all of the songs in this text at great length, and put years of work into the writing of this book. "This work is the practical proof of some fifteen years' agreeable labour in the fields of lyric literature and song lore.," he notes. Very thorough in his research, Fitz-Gerald goes on to explain, "These histories, as far as possible accurate, of all the world's most famous and popular songs and ballads, have been gathered from all sorts of available sources, books, magazines, and newspapers, and living representatives and friends of deceased writers." The book includes songs from all over the globe including songs from America, such as "Star-Spangled Banner" and "Yankee Doodle"; Germany, such as "Die Waht Am Rhein and "Die Schwertlied"; and France, such as "Les Constantes Amours D'Alix Et D'Alexis" and "La Marseillaise." This book also contains several illustrations and anecdotale accounts to further the exploration of the songs and the lore behind them. Clearly a labor of passion and love, Stories of Famous Songs is a wonderful examination of famous music pieces and their lyrics. With detailed histories and stories of the writers, composers, and performers, this text reads like a turn-of-the-century "behind the scenes" look at some of time's most beloved tunes. This is an excellent read for the music lover and historian alike, sure to incite passion and curiosity in any reader.

Excerpt from Stories of Famous Songs In dealing with the Irish and the Scottish sections I have striven to be just to each. When selected portions of the Stories were appearing in Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper, I was assailed quite violently by certain Scottish gentlemen, who were highly indignant with me for various statements I made as to who wrote and who did not write particular songs that had generally been accepted as having been born in Scotland. But nobody has yet proved that abuse is either argument or logic, and as I have found no reason to alter the views I originally expressed, they remain exactly as I first wrote them down, except in one or two instances where I have been enabled to strengthen my convictions.

The second in a two volume series, Stories of Famous Songs by S. J. Adair Fitz-Gerald is an encyclopedia of song and lyric history and lore for music from all over the world. Fitz-Gerald colors the reader's imagination with tales of love gone bad, rampant patriotism, and lyrics stumbled upon by accident in this charming and endearing volume. Each story, without exception, is interesting, surprising, and tells a completely unique tale of the inspiration, process, and journey of some of our most beloved songs. Fitz-Gerald researched all of the songs in both of these volumes at great length, and put years of hard work into the writing of this book. Not content to simply tale the tale of famous American songs, he combed the globe and found continental songs such as "Vive Henri Quatre" and "Ich bin ein Preusse," Welsh songs like "Idle Days in Summer Time" and "Maid of Mona's Isle," Scottish songs such as "Jessie the Flower o' Dunblane" and "Anne Laurie," and Irish songs including "St. Patrick was a Gentleman" and "The Spring of Shilleleah." The final chapter of the work includes an in-depth exploration behind the English national anthem: "God Save the Queen" in which Fitz-Gerald reveals the birthplace of this revered treasure and the various theories around it's mysterious authorship. His dramatic storytelling and attention to idiosyncratic detail give this treasured work the life and luster of a masterpiece, if not the renown. Clearly a labor of passion and love, Stories of Famous Songs is a masterful examination of famous music pieces across the globe and the stories of their origin. With detailed histories and stories of the writers, composers, and performers, this text reads like a turn-of-the-century "behind the scenes" look at some of time's most beloved tunes. This is an excellent read for the music lover and historian alike, sure to incite passion and curiosity in any reader.
