SIDELIGHTS:

Lynda Moreau told CA: "My interest in Confederate history gave me the idea for the two cookbooks that were done with the cooperation of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. I thought it would be interesting to include photographs (when available) and anecdotal stories about the contributors' ancestors and the recipes they chose to include."
