Reviews
"A book of considerable merit . . . seemingly done with as much affection as musical and intellectual interest."--Boston Globe, "A book of considerable merit . . . seemingly done with as much affection as musical and intellectual interest."-- Boston Globe, "Parrish has made a contribution not so much in what she has collected and published but in showing an unwilling world what is necessary to be done to understand these people and their contributions."--Journal of Negro History, "A valuable contribution to our knowledge of American Negro folklore and folksong."-- New York Times Book Review, "Parrish has made a contribution not so much in what she has collected and published but in showing an unwilling world what is necessary to be done to understand these people and their contributions."-- Journal of Negro History, "A valuable contribution to our knowledge of American Negro folklore and folksong."--New York Times Book Review, "Parrish's understanding of the African sources of African-American culture on the Georgia coast was far in advance of most thinking at the time. . . . Her deep understanding and abiding respect for African-American culture is far more striking to the modern reader than are her occasional nods to the shibboleths of the fashionable criticism of her era."--Charles Joyner
