Originally published in 1867, this book is a collection of songs of
African-American slaves. A few of the songs were written after the
emancipation, but all were inspired by slavery. The wild, sad
strains tell as the sufferers themselves could, of crushed hopes,
keen sorrow and a dull daily misery, which covered them as
hopelessly as the fog from the rice swamps. On the other hand the
words breathe a trusting faith in the life after to which their
eyes seem constantly turned.
