This is a broad survey of American popular music in the nineteenth century. Such music was enormously popular at the time: much of it appeared as sheet music that was either played on the piano or sung by individuals or groups gathered in family parlours. Finson discusses both songs and lyrics and also puts these songs into a wider social and cultural context.
