This vintage book contains DuBose Heyward's 1925 novel, Porgy, which was adapted for the stage by his wife in 1927. It is the tale of a crippled street-urchin living in the black tenements of Charleston, South Carolina, in the 1920s. Porgy was based on a real-life resident of Charleston, Samuel Smalls.
