This book is long out of print, and only a single copy is known, in the British Library. This directory contains transcriptions of the book's tunes, by John Chambers, from images in Google Books. Please send me a message if you find any errors.

Note that the OECD.* files contain the entire collection. The tunes are in alphabetical order, not the order in the book. The book's table of contents lists alternate names for some of the tunes, most of which I've included in the files to help find other versions.

If you don't have ABC software, you might like to try a tool that returns the tunes in various formats: CLICK HERE. This will return the page you're looking at now, but the ABC files will be expanded to show all the tunes, and each tune will have a line of links to return it in a number of different formats.
