AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Never Without a Songfocuses on the centrality of folksong in the life of Jennie Devlin (1865-1952), a woman who had worked for years as a "bound-out girl" along the New York-Pennsylvania border. Katharine Newman met Devlin in 1936 and compiled information about the older woman's life and music. Half a century later Newman returned to her collection in retirement -- now with her own perspective of age. The result is a unique biography, told with depth and candor. "Beautifully written, uncluttered and straightforward." --Bluegrass UnlimitedNewman, Katharine D. is the author of 'Never Without a Song The Years and Songs of Jennie Devlin, 1865-1952' with ISBN 9780252063718 and ISBN 0252063716.
