Grits to Glory: How Southern Cookin' Got So Good

More about the book

This warm, sometimes humorous, fact-filled history of the Souths uniquely yummy food shines new light on Southern culture. Its also a thick-as-sawmill-gravy exploration of Southern relationships, because in the South, food is a social matter, and theres a story behind every dish. The text includes short historical sidebars called Porch Talk and is also sprinkled with bits of homespun Granny wisdom called Recipe for Living.
