Review
From Midwest Book Review
These essays exploring Afro-American folklore gathers a fine collection of writings which examine a range of related issues; from the development of regional music springing from Sacred Harp singing to slave narratives and blacksmithing practices in Texas. Story themes are explored in a fine in-depth, scholarly study appropriate for college-level review.
