Joel Chandler Harris 
Uncle Remus, his songs and his sayings [EPUB ebook] 

pub One.info present you this new edition. I am expected to supply a preface for this new edition of my first book- to advance from behind the curtain, as it were, and make a fresh bow to the public that has dealt with Uncle Remus in so gentle and generous a fashion. For this event the lights are to be rekindled, and I am expected to respond in some formal way to an encore that marks the fifteenth anniversary of the book. There have been other editions- how many I do not remember- but this is to be an entirely new one, except as to the matter: new type, new pictures, and new binding.
