Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 324 pages. A sourcebook of contemporary and historical commentary on America's first pop ular mass entertainment. As the blackface minstrel show evolved from its beginn ings in the American Revolution to its peak during the late 1800s, its frenetic dances, low-brow humor, and lively music provided more than mere entertainment.
