Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches

"The book is of curious warp and woof, and the poetical form of the title is the index to much of its content and phraseology....Many passages of the book will be very interesting to the student of the negro character who regards the race ethnologically and not politically, not as a dark cloud threatening the future of the United States, but as a peculiar people, and one, after all, but little understood by the best of its friends or the worst of its enemies outside of what the author of THE SOULS OF BLACK FOLK is fond of calling the "Awful Veil."W. E. B. Du Bois is the author of 'Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches' with ISBN 9780899665351 and ISBN 0899665357.
