Dubbed the "Poet Laureate of the Negro race" by Booker T. Washington, Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872 - 1906) is best known for his lively dialect poems, however, Dunbar also wrote fine poems in standard English that captured many elements of the black experience in America. This volume contains a representative cross-section of both types of verse.
