Traces the lives of the Snowdens, an African American family of musicians and farmers living in rural Knox County, Ohio. This book examines the Snowdens' musical and social exchanges with rural whites from the 1850s through the early 1920s and provides an exploration of the claim that the Snowden family taught the song "Dixie" to Dan Emmett.
