But the song that Guthrie despised had its own complexities. Irving Berlin had risen from homelessness before becoming America's most successful songwriter, and penned his song partly in response to Hitler's rise overseas. In This Land That I Love, music-writer and composer John Shaw writes the dual biography of these beloved American songs, at the same time shedding new light on our patriotic musical heritage, from "Yankee Doodle" and "The Star-Spangled Banner" to Martin Luther King's quotation of "My Country 'Tis of Thee" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in August 1963. Delving into the deeper history of war songs, minstrelsy, ragtime, country music, folk music, and African American spirituals, Shaw unearths a rich vein of half-forgotten patriotic and musical traditions. With the aid of new archival research, he uncovers new details about the songs' composition, including a never-before-printed verse for "This Land Is Your Land." The result is a fascinating narrative that refracts and re-envisions America's tumultuous history through the prism of two unforgettable anthems. 600 10 Berlin, Irving,|d1888-1989.|tGod bless America.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no98023933 600 10 Guthrie, Woody,|d1912-1967.|tThis land is your land. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2013032388 600 17 Berlin, Irving.|tGod Bless America.|2gnd 600 17 Guthrie, Woody,|d1912-1967.|tThis land is your land.|2gnd 650 0 Patriotic music|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008108978|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 Popular music|zUnited States|xHistory and criticism. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008109794 650 7 Patriotic music.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1055120 650 7 Popular music.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1071422 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 602878 994 C0|bRID
