Comments

I love the cover art. This is the only book to my knowledge that made it into the 90's without getting rid of the southern dialect. What I have a real problem with, however, is the fact that the "new" editors wrote over Walt Disney's original foreword and replaced it with a more "historically accurate" and "politically correct" version.
