Synopsis
Bars Fight, a ballad telling the tale of an ambush by Native Americans on two families in 1746 in a Massachusetts meadow, is the oldest known work by an African-American author. Passed on orally until it was recorded in Josiah Gilbert Holland's History of Western Massachusetts in 1855, the ballad is a landmark in the history of literature that should be on every book lover's shelves.

Newspapers & Magazines
'As the reader takes a cover page in each hand and fans out the pages of the concertina, she feels a whole history unfurl within her hands. Although small in size, Bars Fight is mighty in significance.' (Indie Insider) '[This] publication of Lucy Terry Prince's Bars Fight is a stellar example of bringing a truly madly deeply neglected text back to life. Bravo!' (Neglected Books)
