Cowboy Songs and Other Frontier Ballads is a collection of traditional American folk songs and ballads compiled by John A. Lomax, a pioneering musicologist and folklorist. The book includes lyrics and musical notation for over 100 songs, many of which were passed down orally through generations of cowboys and settlers in the American West. The songs cover a range of themes, from love and romance to work and play, and often feature vivid descriptions of life on the frontier. Lomax's introduction provides historical context for the songs and explains their cultural significance.
