The first ever comprehensive collection of this legendary songwriter's work, an enormous tome containing 200 of this British songmaster's best songs ("The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," "Dirty Old Town," "Manchester Rambler," "Shoals of Herring," "Sweet Thames Flow Softly," "Freeborn Man" and many others, some of which have been neither published nor recorded). Ewan MacColl played a vital role in the “folk song revival” in Britain. This unique collection is filled with several hundred photographs, notes, and quotes, plus a biography, a discography and Peggy's personal tribute to him.
