The plays of Edward Harrigan (1845-1911), and their attendant songs written with David Braham (1838-1905), reflect a turbulent era in New York City, which was just emerging as the cultural and economic center of American life. The lyrics, while acceptable in the late 19th century, may offend many of our customers today. We offer this music because of its historical value as a document of the attitudes of the time.
