Praise for this book

"Bryan's seminal collections of slave songs and 'sorrow songs' (originally published by Atheneum in 1974 and 1982, respectively) have been reissued, updated, and beautifully redesigned with a new introduction by Bryan and a foreword by Dr. Henrietta Mays Smith." --Elissa Gershowitz, the Horn Book
"Alazar Press presents handsome new editions of Ashley Bryan's first two books of spirituals, long out of print. Each title presents two dozen selections, pairing striking linocut illustrations with lyrics and music." --Joy Fleishhacker, School Library Journal
