The front cover features a photo of both Cole and Johnson with the caption "Cole & Johnson. Who keep the world a-singing." OCLC locates five holdings of this title. The Shoo-Fly Regiment is an important early African American musical that told the story of African American soldiers during the Spanish-American War. In a review of a book by scholar Paula Marie Seniors which analyzes the work of Cole and Johnson Paige McGinely explains that Seniors' analysis "aims to demonstrate that the spectacles of black patriotism showcased in Shoo Fly Regiment were direct refutations of Theodore Roosevelt's 'Rough Rider' white-supremacist imperialist mentality. By suggesting the possibility of coalitions among people of color the world over Shoo Fly Regiment staged a direct critique of both racist and imperialist projects steered by the United States" an analysis made all the more interesting given that Johnson eventually developed a connection to Roosevelt. Though "Who Do You Love" is merely a love song written in dialect it is nonetheless less a part of this historically and culturally significant musical. Jos. W. Stern & Co unknown books
