Description:Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 65-14828Note: This edition does not include "A STORY OF THE WAR" or "HIS SAYINGS"Cover copy as follows:Among the immortal "real folks" of literature Uncle Remus' place is secure; in the ancient order of storytellers his fame is international. In the Uncle Remus books there is fancy, there is fun, there is wisdom, there is humanity. There are stories good enough to be savored for a lifetime. Mark Twain called Uncle Remus "a lovable and delightful creation." So he has remained for generations of children and their parents. These superbly told stories have been acclaimed by scholars for their fidelity to their popular sources and looked at askance for their acquiescence in post-bellum plantation tradition, Uncle Tom figure and all. But they are read as literature. True, the framework of the stories gives interesting insights into the nineteenth century rural South, and interesting "analogues" to the folklore of Africa and Asia. But it is as art, not as a document, that we turn to Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox and their friends. Here we have a profound classic — complete because in Uncle Remus himself we are given, for all time, a truly great character, limited in his circumstance as a Negro servant of the nineteenth century South and yet forever transcending that circumstance in his artful truth.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
