DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Animal Fables From the Dark Continent These fables have been selected, adapted and arranged from the folklore of the Negro race. Twenty of them were drawn entirely from Afri can sources and the other fourteen from American. The striking similarity between the two groups shows their common African origin and relation ship. It is now admitted that the great number of quaint animal stories once so frequently told among the slave population of our southern states in their odd dialect were brought to America by their ancestors from the shores of Africa.
