Winner of two James Beard Foundation awards, including Cookbook of the Year, Victuals (pronounced vidles) is more than a collection of recipes. Author Ronni Lundy has crafted a study in Appalachian foodways that has drawn national attention to the region's often overlooked culinary traditions. Alongside some 80 recipes, beautiful photos and essays introduce readers to farmers, curers, hunters, and chefs who keep Appalachia's edible heritage alive. This is a hardback book.
