By the American journalist born in Eatonton, Georgia who wrote the Uncle Remus stories. The stories, based on the African-American oral storytelling tradition, were revolutionary in their use of dialect and in featuring a trickster hero called Br'er ("Brother") Rabbit, who uses his wits against adversity, though his efforts do not always succeed. Apart from Uncle Remus, Harris wrote several other collections of stories depicting rural life in Georgia.
