Songs In The Shade is a book of African-American folk songs and spirituals, compiled and edited by Henry Doman and first published in 1881. The book features over 100 songs, many of which were collected from former slaves and their descendants in the southern United States. The songs cover a range of themes, including love, work, religion, and freedom. Each song is accompanied by a brief introduction and notes on its history and cultural significance. The book also includes sheet music and lyrics for each song, as well as illustrations of African-American life in the 19th century. Songs In The Shade is an important historical document, providing a glimpse into the musical traditions of African-Americans during a time of great social and political change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
