Edna Lewis, the “first lady of Southern cooking,” made this classic Southern cookbook possible. It features seasonal recipes from her childhood in Freetown, Virginia, the town her grandfather founded in 1916. The book reflects her deep admiration for farm-grown recipes passed down through generations of her family after they were freed from slavery.
