SynopsisOn tiny Smith Island, seventy-five miles southeast of Washington, D.C., in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay, Frances Kitching operated a small, widely renowned restaurant. Susan Stiles Dowell, working closely with her, gathered more than one hundred of her recipes -- many of them from the generation-to-generation, oral tradition.This is more than just a regional cookbook. In Mrs. Dowell's sensitive and luminous telling of the lore and lure of this remote island, and in forty evocative photographs, colorful people and places come to life.

    It’s an amazing book, but it arriving without a dust jacket was a disappointment.
