More Than Moonshine is both a cookbook and a narrative that recounts the way of life of southern Appalachia from the 1940's to 1983. The women of Stoney Fork rarely had cash to spend, so they depended upon the free products of nature--their cookery used every nutritious, edible thing they could scour from the gardens and hillsides. These survival skills are recounted in the pages of More Than Moonshine, with instructions for making moonshine whiskey, for fixing baked groundhog with sweet potatoes, for making turnip kraut, cracklin' bread, egg pie, apple stackcake, and other traditional dishes.
I have a question about the book:
