Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. 329-335 pages. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x6 1/4") Volume 77, number 2 bound in original publisher's wrappers. First edition. One of the legacies of the various Black Pride movements of the sixties has been the proliferation of books on "Black English." It was not until the scholarly community could conceive of black Americans as having sufficiently distinctive patterns of culture that such studies were carried out or found much of an audience. Before that black language was commonly accounted for in the same way as other Afro-American behaviors. This work delves into these cultural and linguistic studies.

Hard cover. Etat : Fine in very good dust jacket. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. Audience: General/trade. Slight shelf wear, but a nearly new copy, with no marks or underlining. 12 photos reproduced, and the emphasis is on slave narratives. This book is quite full of the "sociology" of the 60s and 70s regarding Africa, and is in fact unreadable, in my view. Judging from the index, the focus is on Jamaica, Musical Instruments, Dancing, and oddly enough, a single entry for Albany N. Y and one for "Hot Bean Well Buttered." What is very useful for researchers is the very useful section of letters from Antigua and a long Appendix and Biographical details of some of the sources, a woman named Janet Shaw who traveled to Antigua with her brother in 1790 and kept a journal, which was only published in 1921, That journal: is available now online.…
