Trade Review
“The Rosenbaums have made a splendid contribution to our understanding of both southern culture and history.” - Georgia Historical Quarterly

“This book shows its editor in the roles of interviewer, interpreter of social-scientific data, annotator, discographer, and artist; he plays them all with great success. From the beginning of his artistic career, Rosenbaum has specialized in American folklife scenes. These paintings, depicting the lives and aspirations of the informants, give the collection an expressiveness we hardly meet in folksong books.” - Ethnomusicology
