Near fine condition blue/green boards with a maroon cloth spine/dark green spine lettering contained in a good condition color illustrated dust jacket. Illustrated with color drawings by William Sharp and a color portrait frontispiece. Arranged for piano…by Ray Lev & Dorothy Berliner Commins. Foreword by Deems Taylor. "The songs of Stephen Foster live in our hearts. They are America's best-remembered folklore and are sung with a joy that makes everyone's voice ring out with rich melody. Here are fifty of Foster's best songs for singing and playing. In the 224 pages of this book of music, text and illustrations are to be found all the tried-and-true favorites - My Old Kentucky Home, Camptown Races, Oh! Susanna, Old Black Joe, Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair, Old Folks at Home, Massa's in de Cold Ground - and those others that each new generation of Americans sings with deeper affections. Deems Taylor contributes an illuminating tribute to Foster in his Foreword and the biographical essay and notes by John Tasker Howard reveal all the circumstances under which Foster lived and wrote. The illustrations - a frontispiece in four colors and forty-nine full-page drawings in two colors - by William Sharp capture the mood of each song. The piano arrangements by Ray Lev and Dorothy Berliner Commins retain the true character of the original songs. A Treasury of Stephen Foster is a book to be used and cherished by everyone who wants to sing alone or with his friends." - from the inner front jacket flap. Sharp, William (illustrator).
