NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Part cookbook, part memoir, these
"rollicking, poignant, sometimes hilarious tales" (USA Today) are the
Pulitzer Prize-winner's loving tribute to the South, his family and,
especially, to his extraordinary mother.
Here are irresistible stories and recipes from across generations. They
come, skillet by skillet, from Bragg's ancestors, from feasts and near
famine, from funerals and celebrations, and from a thousand tales of
family lore as rich and as sumptuous as the dishes they inspired. Deeply
personal and unfailingly mouthwatering, The Best Cook in the World is
a book to be savored.
