By charles
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is one of the most delightful cookbooks, written by a descendent of Eliza Pickney (the Colonial pioneer who perfected the cultivation of indigo on one of her three plantations in Charleston, South Carolina) you can have in your collection! Coming to light only in recent years, Harriott Pinckney Horry, Eliza's daughter, gives us a glimpse of what life was like in the antebellum period. A delight to read and a keepsake for future generations not yet born or known.

Format:Hardcover
As a distant relative of Harriott Pinckney Horry, the book was great as an insight to daily life on a plantation.
