(2) PS Bryan's seminal collections of slave songs and "sorrow songs" have been updated and beautifully redesigned with a new introduction by Bryan and foreword by Dr. Henrietta Smith. The covers are now in color; the books contain the same inspiring and culturally significant songs--"Go Tell It On the Mountain," "Nobody Knows the Trouble I See," and others--with musical notation and black-and-white woodcut art. This review covers these two titles: I'm Going to Sing: Black American Spirituals, 
Volume Two and Walk Together Children: Black American Spirituals, 
Volume One.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz | Horn Book Magazine Issue: February, 1983
