This captivating book celebrates the holiday traditions of Appalachian families as passed from one generation to the next. The memories shared here are from a simpler time, when gifts were fewer but perhaps more precious. It includes instructions for recreating many of the ornaments, toys, and recipes that make up so many family traditions, from chicken and dumplings to black walnut cake, from candy pulls to hand-whittled toy cars.
