Parks’ American National Songs Number 1 For Male Voices.
March 6, 2006: Note: The copy used for this list was donated to the Anna Bemis Palmer Museum, York, Nebraska in August, 2005. It has 50¢ on the cover, and on the title page. Some early listings of J.A. Parks music list a 25¢ edition. That 32 pg. edition has an 1898 copyright on the front cover. A copy was donated to Kilgore Memorial Library in early March, 2006; the 1898 contents are the same as the first 32 pgs. of the later edition.
As with the other J.A. Parks music books detailed in this web site, the fullest information about the individual pieces is given in the alphabetical listings of the songs, where the various arrangements can be compared.
