PUBLISHERS' NOTE

Nights With Uncle Remus is a story-book dearly loved by children.Besides that, it is an important contribution to the study ofAfro-American folk-lore, and through many years of popularity it hascarried a long and learned Introduction, of great interest to studentsbut rather forbidding in aspect to youthful readers. In this newedition, which has been prepared especially for children, andillustrated in colors by an artist who knows how to please them as wellas their elders, the Introduction has been omitted, but the stories andtheir charming setting have been left intact.
