Book Reviews of Christmas Songs Made in America: Favorite Holiday Melodies and the Stories of Their Origins
Book Review: Minister looking for Stories for Christmas Eve Service
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a wonderful book, but it is limited to American Christmas songs and it main focus is non-religious songs. There are only eight stories about Traditional religious carols, and about five spirituals. Still I loved the stories, such as the one about the history of White Christmas, although I could not use it in my Christmas Eve service.
