Summary
There are many cookbooks about Southern cooking, but precious few celebrate the southern Appalachian food that has sustained mountain folk past and present.This is a culinary and cultural tour of a unique slice of America, complete with beautiful photography and information on the history, traditions, culture, and people of the southern Appalachian Mountain region.This is a unique cookbookone that manages to capture the beauty of the mountains, the personality of the people, and the flavor of the cuisine. Many years ago, when Joan Aller moved to the mountains of Tennessee and found a house on a dirt road up a mountain, she felt like she had come home. Over the years, she's watched development and other changes come to the region, so she set about photographing, writing, and collecting the best recipes southern Appalachia has to offer in an effort to preserve the beauty, culture, traditions, and foodways of the southern mountain people. This book is the result of that labor of love.
