This collection of Southern recipes along with companion stories of where the recipes are from is an excellent way for anyone, Southerner or otherwise, to learn about entertaining in the southern United States. The books are not only fun to cook from but offer enjoyable reading as well. Anyone interested in historical recipes should get this collection!

I own several pie cookbooks, but this is one of my favorites. Pies, pastries, cobblers, different kinds of crusts, bake and no-bake...this is a great book to own or to give as a gift. Pie baking is definitely an art and one well worth learning. This book makes a good addition to any cookbook library whether you are a beginning baker or one who has been pie-making for years.

In addition to recipes, the book contains old photographs, advertising, and tidbits of information that are fascinating and fun.

Highly recommended, as are all the books in this series. Pick em all up if you can. It took me years to collect them all and it was a hunt that was well worth the time.

I am elated to be able to add this book to my collection that I started many years ago when these book were first offered thru mail-order. I refused the Pie & Pastry Cookbook, thinking I would learn from my Mother. She died before she could teach me all her wonderful pie making secrets. These are the only Cookbooks that any one needs in their Collection...That is if you love Southern Cooking!! Who doesn't?? Thank you for providing me this book and the super fast shipping. It was a pleasure to purchase from you.
