Thank you!!
I would love to know where I could find any and all
disparaging comments by scholars -- do you know where
I could find any? I'm also interested in compiling a
list of all archived collections of his ballads around
the world -- do you know of any locations to add to my
list? I have checked-out Shepard's _The Broadside
Ballad_ from the library -- thanks for the
recommendation!
Cheers!
