Love It!,
By Rebekkah Mulholland "Bekkah" (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Prentice Hall Anthology of African American Literature with Audio CD (Paperback)
I love this book. It was used as a textbook in an English class I had in undergrad. It was and still is the perfect anthology of African/African American Literature. Also, I had the pleasure of taking Dr. Sharon L. Jones' class! ;)

This review is from: The Prentice Hall Anthology of African American Literature with Audio CD (Paperback)
I loved my order. The book and cd arrived on time and although the book wasn't in perfect condition, the cd was. I've been playing it out. I'm happy with the service and would definitely order again. It's filled with all the stories from my past and both my childhood and I were escorted down memory lane by the Anthology of African American Literature! Thanks for the fantastic trip!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anthology for Arican American Literature,
This review is from: The Prentice Hall Anthology of African American Literature with Audio CD (Paperback)
The seller did not indicate that the CD normally included inside the book was not included upon receipt of the book. There was no note to indicatethat the CD would be forthcoming. The CD is an important part of the book, and I may have chosen another seller had I been aware prior to making my purchase.
