"Will be one of the most esteemed items in the whole of American collected short stories." Douglas Southall Freeman

First printing copy of this collection of eight distinctly "southern" short stories. Signed and inscribed by author's widow on the FFEP. Dated fictional stories of the Negro in the South. Rubbing to hinges. A hint of toning to interior. DJ retains original $2.00 price, but is a bit worn at edges and spine. Some light staining to DJ. Overall, an attractive copy with a bit of character about it.
