Sobre este artículo
New York: Viking, 1940 (1940). Pictorially stamped buff cloth, small dent to rear board, no writing and no foxing; in a pictorial dust jacket with a slightly sunned spine, professional restoration to rear panel and spine ends, price clipped, no award seal. A beautiful copy of Lawson's very scarce Caldecott Medal winning book about his ancestors. The text and pictures depict black slaves in a way that is completely unacceptable by today's standards; however, his mastery as an artist should not be over-looked. The text, while very simple, still gives the reader a glimpse into American History as experienced by Lawson's family. . First Edition. Near Fine/Very Good. Illus. by Robert Lawson. 4to.
Sinopsis
They Were Strong and Good is a book by Robert Lawson that won the Caldecott Medal for excellence in American children's literature in 1941. It tells the story of Lawson's family: where they came from, how they met, what they did, where they lived. "None of them," Lawson says in the preface, speaking of his ancestors, "were great or famous, but they were strong and good."
