The music was cut by Paul Woodroffe (1875-1945), with a clear arrangement of verse, in an attempt to redress visually the drawing of modern music. The text is the result of many years of research and incorporates songs from ten categories, including songs of praise, loyalty and love of the land, the sea, rounds and catches, sport, workshop songs, love and courtship, the tavern and vine, and nonsense. This is the repertoire of Guild songs, sung after Wednesday suppers in Mile End or round the camp fire on river trips (Crawford, p.121). The Essex House Press (1898-1909) founded by C.R. Ashbee (1863-1942) was one of the premier private presses of the "English Nineties," espoused ideals of craftsmanship similar to those of William Morris, and retained the Albion handpresses and many of the Kelmscott personnel when Morris died in 1898. Ashbee considered the Song Book, after the Prayer Book of King Edward VII, the best book produced by the Press. Charles Robert Ashbee (1863 - 1942) was an architect & designer and one of the leading exponents of the Arts & Crafts movement. He established the Guild and School of Handicraft in London in 1888 which he moved to Chipping Campden in Gloucestershire in 1902. The Essex House Press was part of the Guild and was set up when Ashbee acquired the printing presses of William Morris's Kelmscott Press after his death in 1896. Within 5 years, however, the oversupply of handmade furniture and jewellery to a limited local market led to the demise of the Guild and the Essex House Press in 1907. Ashbee's wife, Janet, survived him and died in 1961. quarter vellum with paper-covered boards.
