"Uncle Remus" is a collection of animal stories, songs, and oral folklore, collected from southern African Americans and compiled by Joel Chandler Harris, and published in book form in 1881. Edward Windsor Kemble, an American illustrator known for his depictions of African American life, notably illustrated later editions of the "Uncle Remus" books. Kemble's illustrations are characterized by their vibrant and expressive nature, bringing Harris's characters to life and contributing significantly to the visual interpretation and popularity of the tales.

The "Uncle Remus" stories are narrated by the fictional title character, Uncle Remus, who shares the African American folktales, most notably the Br'er Rabbit stories, with a young boy. These tales are rooted in traditional African stories and were a part of the oral tradition. Harris's work in compiling and adapting these stories was both praised for its preservation of African American heritage and criticized for its use of dialect and perceived perpetuation of antebellum stereotypes.

Edward Windsor Kemble's illustrations played a crucial role in the reception and interpretation of the "Uncle Remus" stories. His work is noted for its detailed and empathetic portrayal of African American figures, which some scholars argue adds depth and humanity to Harris's characters, potentially mitigating some of the criticisms of the text. Kemble's contributions to the editions of "Uncle Remus" are an essential aspect of the book's history and its impact on American literature and culture.
