Book Synopsis Thomas W. Talley's Negro Folk Rhymes by : Thomas Washington Talley
Book excerpt: In 1922, Talley, a black chemistry professor at Fisk U. in Nashville, published the first collection of American black folksongs. The initial international acclaim for the book faded as attention turned to blues and spirituals. The new edition includes material from Talley's unpublished papers. Many of the over 300 songs are accompanied by musical scores. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
