Practicing anthropology in the South
My edition of the book was bought by my great-grandmother in 1942. It cost her three shillings, and was clearly cheap at the price, because it has been enjoyed by three subsequent generations of her family. It's set in Michigan, around 1880, when the author is six years old. It follows one year in the life of a country kitchen: the meals that are eaten, the food that is farmed, cooked, preserved and stored. Each meal is prepared with deliberation, from ingredients that come from the family's farm. The author includes recipes, though I don't believe the meals described could be made by a modern reader who does not have access to these fresh ingredients. It's a lovely book -- comforting to read, and while the stories about food and family are warm and generous, they are not sentimental. The difficulties of living on the land, and the hardships and inequalities, are also included. I read this while I was getting over flu, and it was the perfect thing.
This is not currently in print, but it must have been popular in its day -- my version is the British reprint, which includes an introduction explaining ingredients that must have been unknown in the UK of the 40s, such as dill or cornmeal.
