Publisher's Synopsis

Mammy - her bright eyes and jolly face are often to be seen gazing up at us from old cookbooks, syrup bottles, etc. This book looks beyond that to ask who Mammy is, where she came from, and why she is nearly always a large, black woman with a sonorous voice, raucous laugh and infinite patience.
