Legends of the Old Plantations told by Uncle Remus in dialect, also Uncle Remus' Songs, A Story of the War (1870), and his sayings. With a foreword by Marc Connelly and an introduction by author Joel Chandler Harris, in which he says that his purpose for writing the Folk-Lore series was to preserve the legends themselves in their original simplicity, and to wed them permanently to the quaint dialect of the old plantations.
