Description

Songs of Freedom is the name of the 1907 songbook edited by the Irish revolutionary socialist James Connolly. For the first time in nearly 100 years, readers will find all of his original songs. Both are reproduced exactly as they originally appeared, providing a fascinating glimpse of the workers' struggle in the early 1900s. To complete the picture, the book includes the James Connolly Songbook of 1972, which contains the most complete selection of Connolly's lyrics and historical background essential to understanding the context in which the songs were written.
