In Dahomey: A Negro Musical Comedy is a book written by Jesse A. Shipp in 1902. It tells the story of two African American men who travel to Dahomey, a country in West Africa, in search of wealth and adventure. The book is a musical comedy and includes lyrics and sheet music for the songs featured in the play. The play was groundbreaking for its time, as it was one of the first musicals to feature an all-black cast and was a major success on Broadway. The book provides insight into the cultural and social climate of the early 1900s and sheds light on the experiences of African Americans during this time period. It is a valuable piece of American history and an important contribution to the world of musical theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
