Présentation de l'éditeur :
Vouma. the aristocratic white mother who gave him birth; the dark bond-mother who gave him all care, who nursed him, bathed him, taught him to speak the soft and musical speech of slaves, took him out in her arms to show him the beautiful tropic world, told him wonderful folkstories of evenings, lulled him to sleep, attended to his every possible want by day or by night. It was not to be wondered at that during infancy the iia should have been loved more than the white mother: when there was any marked preference it was nearly always in theda sfavor. The child was much more with her than with his real mother: she alone satisfied all his little needs; he found, her more indulgent, more patient, perhaps even more caressing, than the other.

Présentation de l'éditeur :
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
