Myths of the Minstrel is a book written by Estelle Anna Lewis, which explores the history and cultural significance of the minstrel show in America. The book delves into the myths and stereotypes perpetuated by these shows, which often portrayed African Americans in a negative light. Lewis examines the origins of the minstrel show and its evolution over time, as well as the impact it had on American society. She also looks at the role of women in the minstrel show, both as performers and as objects of ridicule. Through her research, Lewis challenges the myths and misconceptions surrounding the minstrel show, and sheds light on the complex and often troubling history of this form of entertainment. Overall, Myths of the Minstrel is a thought-provoking and informative book that offers a new perspective on an important aspect of American culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
