These songs, with their original melodies, are valuable because
they are here presented exactly as they were found and sung. Thus
collected and preserved, they provide portraiture of the
Afro-American folk song and background, and they remain a treasure
source for future harmonization if that should be desired. In their
simplicity and realism, they record a true emancipation of the
black spirit. Originally published in 1930. A UNC Press Enduring
