Spoonbread and Strawberry Wine Recipes and Reminiscences of a Family

by Norma Jean and Carole Darden

African American sisters Norma Jean and Carole are the offspring of Walter Darden and Mamie Jean Sampson. Dividing the book between the Sampsons and the Dardens, the sisters celebrate their heritage with an anecdotal sketch for each grandparent, aunt, uncle, and parent, and include that person's favorite recipes. Other chapters give recipes from friends and for holiday gatherings and funerals. 1978.
