1.		101 Great American Poems (Dover Thrift Editions) from Dover Publications Price: $1.50 Customer Review: I bought this book to introduce my students to American poetry from different time periods, and in that respect the book did what I needed it to do. Even so, I would have liked to see more contemporary poetry and a wider variety of styles. I know that any compilation like this is going to focus on... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Collected Poems of Langston Hughes from Vintage Price: $12.89 Customer Review: Langston Hughes: Poet, truth-teller, gifted wordsmith who can cover both the sacred and profane. A fighter, a dreamer, a student, a sailor. He speaks to everyone, any color or creed. He speaks to oppressed people who will never give up. He speaks to me, and to you. He speaks loudly and clearly, with... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		The Ways of White Folks: Stories from Vintage Price: $10.36 Customer Review: I first read this book in Jr. High and thought I would love to go back down memory lane, its even better as an adult to fully grasp his meanings of the times. It depicts what it was like back in the old hard days for our people, yet it has his great sense of humor on display.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Selected Poems of Langston Hughes from Vintage Price: $11.16 Customer Review: Langston Hughes' poems makes my knees knock. There is a little thrill with each poem, like I'm landing in a vat of buttermilk, and splashing happily about. With the subject matters he dares tackle one would think it'd be more realistic to walk away from a deluge of his work in deep depression.more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Mule Bone: A Comedy of Negro Life (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Modern Classics Price: $11.89 Customer Review: Aside from the controversy of the dispute between Hughes and Hurston, I deal with the story and play itself. The play "Mule Bone" is based on "The Bone of Contention," a 1930 short story by the Queen of Black Folklore (ZNH) based on a folktale from her hometown of Eatonville Fla. about two men... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Not Without Laughter (Thrift Edition) from Dover Publications Price: $4.00 Customer Review: Book was interesting and provided a genuine sense of life for blacks during the early part of this century. It started slow but towards the middle of the book the pace picked up and I enjoyed it more.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		The Dream Keeper and Other Poems from Knopf Books for Young Readers Price: $12.74 Customer Review: The book "The dream Keeper" by Langston Hughes is a complete tresure. The first time i saw it was in high school,the poem i had to read was "As I grew older". It really inspired me to fight and never loose faith in what I belive in. African american poetry, in general, are great poems to have and... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		The Big Sea: An Autobiography (American Century Series) from Hill and Wang Price: $10.88 Customer Review: First of all, I dont think i've ever read a book so fast. I borrowed a biography of Langstonn Hughes a number of years ago from a relative and started to read it. However, i put it down at some point and never picked it back up... which is what happens to books that take a minute to pick up... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

15.		Essential Langston Hughes CD (Caedmon Essentials) from Caedmon Price: $11.01 Customer Review: How wonderful it was to find out that there was material that contained the actual voice of the poet reading his poetry as he indented it to be heard.

Humor, political commentary,... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		Black Nativity from Dramatic Pub. Price: $6.95 Customer Review: The CD is entertaining. It sounds like it was recorded from an old record. The songs are short and somewhat follow the script that is contained in the play.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Simple's Uncle Sam: With a New Introduction by Akiba Sullivan Harper from Hill and Wang Price: $10.40 Customer Review: The life of poverty and discrimination is all about Simple, the character in Simple's Uncle Sam.
