We all have songs that have a special meaning in our lives, hearing them evokes a special time or place. Little wonder that these special songs have become enduring classics.áThe book illuminates the way each great song melds words and music into a seamless whole and traces the fascinating but mysterious process of collaboration, the give-and-take between two craftsmen, a composer and a lyricist, as they combined their talents to create a song. For anyone interested in the history of the songs that America loves, AmericaâÇÖs Songs will make for fascinating reading.
