Inscribed to Mr. Chas. H. Amadon One Hundred Favorite Hymns For Male Voices. Arranged by J. A. Parks. Published by the J. A. PARKS COMPANY, York, Nebraska, U.S.A. © MCMXV
Contents are in three divisions — “Hymns for General Use ” (Nos. 1 - 70, pgs. 5 - 79), “Hymns for Special Occasions” (Nos. 71 - 100, pgs. 80 - 111) and “Chants, Responses and Occasional Pieces” (Nos. 1 - 18, pgs. 112 - 127). Many individual song titles have the common name of the hymn tune in parentheses immediately below. This was not Parks’ normal practice. The book’s pages are 5 ¼” x 7¾” rather than Parks’ normal 6¾” x 10 ½”
The listing below is a transcription of the contents pages. Fuller information about each piece is given with the appropriate entry in the J.A. Parks songs listings.
