Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition. An evocative photographic and oral-history documentary preserving the lives, labor, and traditions of tobacco-farming families in the American South during the late 1970s. Photographer Pamela Barefoot combines vivid color portraits, rural landscapes, working farm scenes, and firsthand interviews to document the experiences of generations of tobacco growers. With chapter introductions by Burt Kornegay, the book examines inherited farming traditions, the thirteen-month agricultural cycle, tobacco markets, changing technology, and the enduring relationship between families and their land. Particularly compelling are the recollections of elderly farmers, including accounts of labor, racial history, and agricultural practices extending back to the nineteenth century. The publication includes a congratulatory letter from North Carolina Governor James B. Hunt Jr., who grew up on a tobacco farm. First Edition, explicitly stated on the copyright page, with copyright © 1978 by Barefoot Productions. Bound in golden-brown cloth with gilt-stamped front-cover lettering and black spine titles. Original photographic dust jacket designed by Bruce W. Smith features a tobacco barn and workers beneath striking yellow typography. The coordinated book design emphasizes full-color documentary photography, oral testimony, and spacious modern typography. A previous owner's handwritten name appears on the front free endpaper. Condition: Very Good+ hardcover / Good dust jacket. Golden-brown cloth boards are clean and attractive, with bright gilt lettering, light handling wear, and minor rubbing at the extremities. Spine is straight and the binding sound. Interior pages and color photographs present very well, with light incidental handling wear. The original dust jacket is complete but shows substantial edge and corner wear, rubbing, scattered surface marks, small chips, short tears, and localized fraying, particularly along the upper edges and corners. Some spotting and discoloration are visible on the jacket's white interior. A visually appealing first-edition copy with its original jacket preserved. What distinguishes Mules & Memories from a conventional agricultural history is its combination of documentary photography and firsthand oral testimony. Barefoot and Kornegay explain that their families' tobacco-farming ancestry in Johnston County, North Carolina, extended back to the nineteenth century. Their August 1978 introduction describes farming not merely as an occupation but as an inherited way of life shaped by family, community, labor, and loss. The account of Ila Anderson, Virginia, is especially noteworthy. She recalls her family's history of tobacco cultivation, including the experiences of enslaved ancestors and the demanding labor of earlier generations. These recollections give the book value as a primary-source document of rural Southern social history, extending beyond its photographic appeal. The original design is another strength. Bruce W. Smith is explicitly credited with both the jacket and book design, while W. M. Brown & Son of Richmond, Virginia, handled printing. The oversized photographs, generous white space, and distinctive geometric typography reflect late-1970s documentary-book design.…
