The book is set in the post-Civil War South and features the character of Uncle Remus, a wise and humorous old man who tells stories to children. The tales are told in a dialect that reflects the language and culture of the time and place, and they feature animals such as Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, and Br'er Bear, who engage in trickery and humorous situations. The book also includes songs and rhymes that were popular in the African-American community at the time. Overall, ""Uncle Remus His Songs and His Sayings"" is a significant work of American literature that reflects the cultural history and traditions of the South.1880. With over 100 illustrations. American author and journalist, Harris is famous for humorous adaptations of black folk legends in the Uncle Remus Stories. These folktales, to by a Negro to a little boy, feature a variety of animals with the rabbit as hero and the fox next in importance, and often stress the importance of brains over brawn.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
