Paperback. Condición: New. Ivan H. Walton was a pioneering folklorist who collected the songs and stories of aging sailors living along the shores of the Great Lakes in the 1930s. His collection is unique in the annals of Great Lakes folklore. It began as a search for songs but broadened into a collection of weather signs, shipboard beliefs, greenhorn tales, and stories of the intense rivalry between sailors and the steamboat men who replaced them. Edited by Joe Grimm, Songquest: The Journals of Great Lakes Folklorist Ivan H. Walton is a selection from the daily journals Walton wrote during his travels as a folklore collector.It is clear that Walton, a professor of English at the University of Michigan, both admired the sailors of the Great Lakes for what they had done during their working years and worried about them as they entered the twilight of their lives. Walton went beyond the songs he set out to find and captured the pitch and roll of the Great Lakes alive with white-winged schooners. His writings provide a clear picture of the colorful individuals he met and interviewed-captains, cabin boys, tugmen, chandlers, boardinghouse owners, dredgers, and light keepers. Walton also documented the methods he used and recorded his personal thoughts about his nomadic life and the events going on around him during the 1930s, including the Great Depression, Franklin D. Roosevelt's election, and the end of Prohibition.…

"Flipping through the pages of Windjammers I could almost feel the wind in my hair and hear the music wafting up from on deck. This is a true celebration of history and music. A book that sings! I loved it." - Matt Watroba, WDET, Detroit, MI. "Windjammers marries the daunting field-collecting of Ivan Walton, the meticulous research of the 'landlubber' Joe Grimm, and the musical scores of Lee Murdock to produce a new perspective of Great Lakes sailor life.This is a fresh perspective of historical 'ditties' that never made Billboard's Top Ten List, yet were popular among the freshwater sailors for half a century. Windjammers brings forgotten sailor songs and melodies, so common a century ago, into perspective and allows the reader to contemplate how national and regional topics affected life on the Great Lakes." - John F. Polacsek, Curator of Marine History, Dossin Great Lakes Museum. "What a superb collaboration by a dedicated collector [Walton], artist [Wilson], compiler [Grimm], and transcriber [Murdock]. The result is certainly one of the grandest regional and maritime song collections afloat, deserving a berth in every library and home that harbors a love of the water and the men who sailed it." - Jospeh C. Hickerson, Retired Head, Archive of Folk Culture, American Folklife Center, Library of Congress. "Windjammers is a fitting tribute to maritime folklorist Ivan Walton, whose contribution to the field of folklore was his devotion to collecting Great Lakes folksongs. Grimm collaborates with Walton himself to bring these well-loved songs out of the archive and into a usable format for Great Lakes enthusiasts and researchers alike." - LuAnne Gaykowski Kozma, President Michigan Folklore Society. Wilson, Loudon G. (illustrations); Murdock, Lee (musical scores); Fyfe, Lisa (cover design) (ilustrador).…
