    Official Middle Kingdom Songbook" Is a Publication Ol the Middle Kingdom of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc

    Unto the Populace of the Known World come greetings from Siobhan Medhbh O'Roarke, Chronicler of the Middle in the first reign of their Majesties Eliahu and Elen. The book you now hold in your hands is, I must confess, a mystery to me. It was handed to me, wrapped in a plain brown wrapper, by a mysterious figure in purple. Opening said package, I discovered a manuscript, much travel- and tear-stained. The dedicatory page purported to have left the hands of Countess Valmai many years before, but when I contacted that noble lady, she denied any knowledge of it and vehemently refused to accept any e!a!Tle credit for such a manuscript.* Despite the mysterious origins of the book, it seemed to me to be of value. Not many days before, the Neos in my home barony had been complaining that "No-one ever sings the old songs any more. How can we learn them?" Thus, the discovery of the mysterious parcel seemed Provident, if not serendipitious. It was a book Whose Time Had Come. I set about getting it published. Master Reginald of the Horns, seeing my bewilderment, surrounded by pages of music tossed about in a random manner, graciously offered to rewrite the musical scores in a consistent and pleasing manner. I owe a great debt to him for this labor, for I am confident that the Book would not have appeared in print until Pennsic XX or even later had the task of transcribing the music been left to me. Thanks are also due to Mistress Greya Ankayrlyn, who took pity on the poor naked manuscript and created a cover for it.
