The Wailin’ Songbook

 

‘This book is full to the gunwales of the finest songs gathered from the four corners of the earth.

Learn the ropes so you’re ready to sing along when you’re next stranded with your maties.

You’d be hard pressed to find a finer collection of songs this side of Nantucket.’
