"The history of the black man in America is inseparably intertwined with the Bible. During the dark night of the black man's servitude the preacher was the only public speaker allowed on the plantation, and the Scriptures were the only approved reading. Listening to the stories of the Hebrew slavery and the Exodus, the black man discerned a similarity of experience and made the message of the Bible the cradle of his hope. The church became the temple of hope, and the Negro spiritual reflected the ebb and flow of his dreams. Ranging from the abject pathos of "Nobody Knows but Jesus" to the triumphant notes of "Free at Last," the black man's music mirrors his history and hopes. This book is dedicated to his hope." (p. 12).
