Description

"With Fried Chicken and Apple Pie, writer John T. Edge launches a series of unforgettable short books on selected icons of American food. In it, he celebrates the foods that conjure childhood and comfort, that compel us to hit the road in search of the greasy grail, that call us to the kitchen - the ones everybody thinks their mom made best. In doing so he discovers the story of America itself, using food as a lens through which to view history and culture and reveal a rich social landscape."--Jacket.
