From the rear cover
'For more than two decades, scholars have been identifying African contributions to America's cultural mix... None, however, has done so thorough a job as Piersen in illustrating how fully the cultures of African America and Euramerica have blended. Piersen draws on an impressive array of evidence--folktales, religious rituals, oral traditions, music, and written accounts--to assess the significance of African and African American culture in shaping the American South.' --Choice
