Political historians have traditionally interpreted the people and events of each presidential era by studying books, periodicals, letters, diaries and speeches. One source of printed material that has not received much scholarly attention is published music, much of which has been all but lost in the archives of libraries and museums. These two volumes of Presidential Sheet Music present an exhaustive listing of presidential-related music in all printed forms, with information on each piece.
