Virginia housewives kept their secrets between these covers: bread, oysters and other shell fish, game, and the coffee, tea, and chocolate of the old households. Marion Cabell Tyree gathered the receipts of the state's famous kitchens into one generous volume. Southern hospitality, documented at the source. Set a Virginia table from Virginia's own pages.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
