by Georges Arsenault
- 2 Want to read
"Island historian and folklorist Georges Arsenault has been collecting songs and stories from Acadian Prince Edward Island since his student days in the 1970s: words transmitted by lamplight in the early part of the 20th century, when the local men and women would pass on what they'd learned from elders long gone. Included in this collection are 8 folktales, 13 legends and 23 songs with lyrics and musical notation.
Originally published as Contes, legendes et chansons de I'lle-du-Prince-Edouard (Editions d'Acadie), this English translation by Sally Ross includes footnotes and a bibliography, as well as photos of his 23 informants."--BOOK JACKET.
