{"value"=>"<p>This is a comprehensive collection of Hebrew songs, and for a long time it constituted a basic compilation of that musical genre. There is some English material. All of the Hebrew texts are transliterated, and appear under the single melody lines. Citations are given for poetics/lyrics and musical sources. The table of contents listing has been shaped as an alphabetically numbered index to the songs, thereby facilitating location of particular selections, inasmuch as every song title heading appears in Hebrew print. This collection is divided into the following eleven topical sections: Folksongs; Yearning for Zion; <span class=\"emph\">Chalutsim</span> [Pioneer] Songs; Shepherd and Watchmen Songs; <span class=\"emph\">Chalutsim</span> Dance Songs; Songs of the Sea; Miscelaneous [sic]; Excerpts from the Bible; Sabbath <span class=\"emph\">Zemirot</span> [table hymns]; Liturgical Songs; and, Festival Songs. There is a decorative soft cover, with information about the book printed on the back. Although the arranger-editor writes in his brief introduction that there are 223 songs in the collection, in reality there are 226 numbered selections.</p>"}
