A mythical Afterlife similar to Heaven, Fiddler's Green was said to be a place of perpetual bliss and happiness in which fiddle music played for all Eternity. It was first seen in 1856 in Frederick Marryat's Novel The Dog Friend . Debate arises on if Fiddler's Green originated with Sailors or Landlubbers . The Seamen version is thought o have developed from the desire to be on dry land. Other versions have the poor, but blessed who yearn form final happiness, being given entrance to the cool green forests and meadows. Many of these involve Taverns that never close and beer and alcohol that flows freely Fiddler's Green as Eternal Rest has been featured in many Books, Poems and Songs since the 19th Century. Even Military Men from around The World have referenced Fiddler's Green.
