Seller's Description:
Illustrated. Good in Very Good jacket. Book. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. Gainesville: University of Florida Press, 1965. First edition. Cloth binding, 375 pp. including bibliography. The period of this volume was one of great change in the South. Through the humor one can see many of the prevalent attitudes--for example the desire of the South to vindicate its past; the notion that the Negro was perhaps worthy of freedom, but not of full civil rights; and the attraction of the Negro personality in humor in characters such as Uncle remus, Old Si, Old Wash and Brother Dickey. A fascinating book. Clean ex-library copy in good condition with very good dustjacket, protected with a library-issued plastic cover.
