The most important feature of any work of this kind is the careful selection of those names to be included. Foster has chosen well. . . . Inclusion of lesser-known authors makes this volume useful. \u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new biobibliographical guide identifies known and little known Southern black writers to 1953, many of whom have received scant critical attention over the years. A large number of the works of early Southern black creative writers did not reach a wide audience because they were privately printed or simply not considered worthy of note. Yet their contributions form an important part of the Southern literary heritage. Each of these writers is summarized in a brief biographical sketch that includes place of residence in the South, vocation\/occupation, and identification by genre, as well as a listing of creative writings and publications in which they originally appeared. An insightful introduction perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marie Foster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0313262071\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313262074\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Greenwood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.38d","brand":"Marie Foster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48216481857791,"sku":"9780313262074","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e0e4859-220b-4d60-8200-94604737777a.jpg?v=1771991286","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/southern-black-creative-writers-1829-1953-marie-foster-9780313262074","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
