The Cardinal Heart

R. T. Smith writes with a singular beauty of phrase and admits the heart's chaos without sacrificing accuracy, for his allegiance is to time and place, his references to nature and history. If such boundaries would limit many, Smith flies, and, in poem after poem, arrives at the rare, difficult ending with that momentary ease, which seems both lucky and right and is the signature of the most exacting craft. The Cardinal Heart is a wonderful book.

Cush was a mixture of corn meal, water, and bacon grease cooked over an open fire by Confederate soldiers. That the editors have taken this title for the book indicates the emotional impact of Sprott's Civil War memoirs. Not only do we march and eat this mixture with Sprott, but we witness with him the first execution of Confederate deserters, the bewilderment and frustration of battling infantrymen at what they considered the inane orders from above, the bravery -- and the foolhardiness -- that war inevitably brings. This memoir follows the Sumter regiment from its first "training" sessions to its duty in Mobile near the war's end.

Dim Roads and Dark Nights: An Anthology of Folklore

Politics & Social Sciences

Tartt, Ruby Pickens

Brown. Alan

Social Sciences

These tales were collected from Blacks living in Sumter County, Alabama, before and after World War II. Some of the tales are secondhand slave narratives, and all were recorded well before the Civil Rights Movement. They thus reflect the early straggles and persisting proud humor of Deep South Blacks. Miss Ruby Pickens Tartt was a local white woman who collected the work. With the help of folk singer John Lomax, she published some of the tales as stories and was instrumental in getting Rich Amerson and his wife Little Bit recorded in the Library of Congress. Miss Ruby and the tellers of these tales have been dead many years now. The purpose of the collection is to assure that their work is not forgotten.
