Hardcover (Original Cloth). Condition: Fair. Edition Unstated. This is a collection of sheet music with vocal and piano scoring published by Saalfield and combined into a single volume. As a result, there is both individual pagination for each song and continuous for the whole collection. Despite its title, only a few of the songs evoke a stereotyped black dialect the name "Minstrel" evokes. One is in what purports to be a Chinese accent; a couple are love songs presented as Irish ballads. "Uncle Sam's Farm" invites immigrants to come and settle on the plentiful land. Most are sentimental songs of lost or distant loves and home -- and even the social conditions of the era. The lyrics of "Somebody's Grandpa" were inspired by a newspaper account of a young girl moved with compassion by the plight of a aged homeless man "[i]n drunken sleep" on a city street.
