"This collection of poems attempts to recreate a vanishing part of Black American spiritual culture - the inspirational sermons of old-time Negro preachers. Using punctuation and line arrangements he captures the fervour of the congregation and underlines the importance of these sermons in the development of Black culture. James Wheldon Johnson is the author of 'Along this Way' and 'The Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man'."--Www.amazon.com (Nov. 8, 2010).
