Brand-New Ballads is a collection of poems by Charles G. Leland, an American writer and folklorist. The book contains a series of ballads, which are narrative poems that tell a story. These ballads cover a range of subjects, from love and romance to adventure and mythology. Many of the poems are based on traditional ballads, but Leland has given them a modern twist, using contemporary language and themes. The book is divided into several sections, each with its own theme. The first section, for example, is titled ""Love and Romance"" and includes ballads about courtship, marriage, and heartbreak. Other sections cover topics such as war, nature, and the supernatural. The poems are written in a lyrical style, with a strong emphasis on rhythm and rhyme. Overall, Brand-New Ballads is a unique and engaging collection of poetry that will appeal to fans of traditional ballads as well as those who enjoy modern verse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
