Description and Table of Contents

Description

A well-written, intellectually stimulating study, it is an important contribution to Afro-American literary history, a ground-breaking work. Highly recommended for all audiences. Choice This exciting survey documents the evolution of images of black women in black fiction from 1892 to 1976. . . . The lucidity of the treatment, the broadness of scope, and the sheer heart that Christian has put in along with the scholarly trappings will make this compelling for both academics and lay readers.
