He used to have it but loaned it to a friend who never returned it. He loves it cause it has true civil war hymns in it1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. I wish it had a little more...By MaganHarrell92It's in very good shape. It's thick and has a lot of songs; poems; and sheet music. It's a fine book overall; but it's missing some songs that I would have loved to see in it. 'Rose of Alabamy' and 'I'm a Good Ol' Rebel' are two of my favorites; and I was sad to see that they weren't included.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
