Excerpt from The Music of the Pilgrims: A Description of the Psalm-Book Brought to Plymouth in 1620
This study of a point in the musical history of America that has been rather strangely overlooked is an expansion of a paper prepared for the International Council held in Boston on June 29 - July 6, 1920, and also given, in a revised form, before the Connecticut Historical Society on October 5, 1920.
Thanks are due Mr. John Albree, of Boston, for kind permission to make reproductions from his copy of Ainsworth's Psalter, and to him and Rev. Dr. Louis F. Benson, of Philadelphia, for valuable assistance in other ways.
