Great book, and source of some of the finest music. Here is one tabbed for a test drive. Once I hit a good format, I think I will keep going. This book should be in tab.

One thing I do enjoy about Buckley 1868 is the lack of fingerings.
Ever do Bobey Nickle's Jig? On page 12 Glory Hallelujah is on there, but it is just one short line. The next 2 lines are Hear Him Johnny Hear Him.
Anyway, I am committing to the project. I'll have a full book by AEBG.
Okay, here are a couple more. I'll stay off the grid with it until June. I think a nice bound collection would be great, and include the original score too.
94 tunes in this collection. Whew....taking a while. I'm leaving midi files available too.
So this project is rolling along nicely. All are tabbed, and I am in the painful process of editing. Checking, double checking......the midi is a great tool also. Playing, looking...and repeat.)
I am also leaving it unfingered ( there is little in there anyway ) BUT including overall interpretive tips and examples. I am fingering and discussing several pieces in an appendix.
It will be available as an online download and a hard copy. Of course, the CD's are available.
