African-American Southern Belles Cookbook: Suggested Menus and Recipes Marriages on the Plantation

The main purpose of the wedding cookbook is to highlight African American Southern belles. From slavery up to the present time, the African American woman has planned exquisite weddings with little or no resources. She used hand-me-downs or made her wedding clothing from threads taken from spinning cotton and dyeing the cloth. In the wedding cookbook, the author suggests menus and recipes traditionally prepared in the South or Southeastern states.
