Summary

It’s been more than a hundred years since the publication of the first Uncle Remus book, and it was in 1955 that all of the delightful and inimitable tales of Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, Brer Bear, and Brer Wolf were gathered together in one volume. All of the animal tales from eight books are here, along with the illustrations which originally accompanied them.

First line

ONE EVENING recently, the lady whom Uncle Remus calls "Miss Sally" missed her little seven-year-old boy.

Media reviews

"These stories are as American as the stars and stripes, even though they have some of their origins in Africa." Saturday Review
