    Negro Folk Rhymes
    Wise and Otherwise.
    With a Study b
    y Thomas W. Talley of Fisk University

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Dr. Talley, a
    Tennessee
    native, taught chemistry and biology at
    Fisk
    University
    . While an undergraduate, he joined the Fisk Jubilee Singers. His love of traditional African American music led him to collect the texts of Black rural music throughout
    Tennessee
    in his later life. Published in 1922, this groundbreaking work,
    Negro Folk Rhymes
    , was the first collection of African American secular folk music, the first folklore collection compiled by a Black scholar, and the first serious collection of folk songs of any type from
    Tennessee
    .
