Negro Folk-Songs: The Hampton Series, Books I-IV Complete is a comprehensive collection of African American folk songs compiled by Natalie Curtis-Burlin. The book includes all four volumes of the Hampton Series, which were originally published between 1918 and 1921. The songs in this collection were collected from various sources, including former slaves, plantation workers, and prisoners. The book features over 200 songs, including work songs, spirituals, ballads, and children's songs. Each song is accompanied by historical and cultural context, as well as musical notation and lyrics. The collection provides a valuable insight into the musical traditions of African American communities during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in African American history, music, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
