Old Plantation Hymns is a collection of previously unpublished melodies that were sung by slaves and freedmen in the United States during the era of slavery. The book includes historical and descriptive notes that provide context for the songs and their cultural significance. The author, William E.

This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American music, African American culture, and the legacy of slavery in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
