Description
 
Originally published as Folk-lore from the Dominican Republic, this book commissioned by the American Folklore Society, and authored by Manuel de Jesus Andrade is a translation of one of the most valuable researches ever conducted on the Dominican Folk-lore.

The book contains a wealth of folk tales, and work songs told in the exact words of the people interviewed by the author. Not only do we read these imaginative tales, but also get a glimpse of the different "dialects" spoken in the island. Folklore de la Republica Dominican is not only of interest to scholars, it is also a very interesting read for the quality of its stories in themselves.

This 1976 re-print was sponsored by the Dominican Book Society and it reproduces faithfully the previous Unfortunately this great book seems to be out of print, and it is rarely available.

THIS IS AN USED, OUT OF PRINT BOOK. IT HAS JUST BEEN REPAIRED TO LIKE-NEW CONDITION. SAVE FOR A FEW LIGHT-YELLOW STAINS IN SOME PAGES (DUE TO AGING), IT IS PRACTICALLY NEW. THE NEW HARD COVER IS FINISHED IN DARK-RED LEATHER-LOOK MATERIAL AND GOLD LETTERING.
