Gullah - Paperback

by Mason Crum (Author)

Mason Crum's study of the Gullah people of the Carolina Sea islands is at once a product of its time and a more modern and sensitive treatment of enslaved culture. A descendant of slaveowners, and having grown up around formerly enslaved people, Crum was uniquely positioned to offer a still-useful portrayal of these people. Chapters included on Gullah dialect, plantations, cultural backgrounds of negro spirituals, religion, Port Royal Experiment, and more.
