Work Description
Betty Smith Foley FOREWARD:
Throughout these poems I have tried faithfully to reproduce various phases of the life of the old-time Southern negro - his awe of the supernatural, love of grand display, his genuine delight in the simple joys of life, his loyalty, service and devotion to his 'white folks, ' faith in the Almighty, and his deep religious fervor.
His homely philosophy has been immortalized in song and story, but this book is dedicated to those readers who may be in sympathy with these chips of memory which I have picked up, as it were, from the old wood pile. Betty Smith Foley.*
