A promise kept across centuries: a living chorus of England's past, restored for today's readers. The Cavalier Songs And Ballads Of England; From 1642 To 1684 gathers a rich sequence of historical poetry that speaks with the immediacy of a ballad-singer and the clarity of a scholar. This is more than a historical anthology; it is a cohesive experience of loyalty and rebellion, romance and tragedy, set against the upheavals of the English civil war and the restoration era. The verses travel from courtly longing to streetwise wit, offering a vivid window into 17th century England while inviting contemporary readers to compare voices, forms, and passions across time. The collection functions as a complete ballad collection-an accessible, human doorway into a culture in flux-and rewards lovers of literary craft with its rhythmic clarity, varied metre, and lucid storytelling. The book's literary and historical significance lies in its preservation of enduring themes and its illumination of popular verse as a political and social record. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, this edition provides a tangible link to a pivotal era in English writing. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This is the complete historical poetry collection you'll return to again and again.
