Abstract

Here are, in a book of large format, thirteen stories from the Uncle Remus cycle. Among those most closely related to traditional fables are Brer Fox goes A-hunting; Against the Law; Mr. Dog's new shoes; Brer Terrapin shows his Strength; How Brer Rabbit lost his Fine Bushy Tail; The Moon in the Mill-pond; and Little Mr. Cricket. Among the best illustrations is that at the end of Against the Law. Brer Wolf is back under the heavy rock where he started, Brer Terrapin is feeling great about his power of judgment, and Brer Rabbit is just ready to keep going wherever he was going when he was silly enough to help Brer Wolf (14). I have trouble understanding this editor's rules for capitalization. The book has a musty smell.
