Lost Delta Found: Rediscovering the Fisk University-Library of Congress Coahoma County Study, 1941-1942
John W. Work
In 1941 and '42 African American scholars joined folklorist Alan Lomax on research trips to Coahoma County, Mississippi. Their mission was ""to document adequately the cultural and social backgrounds for music in the community."" Their work captures a place, a people, a way of life, and a set of rich musical traditions as they existed in the 1940s.
