We drove up to Harper's Ferry, WV this morning. At the National Park Service visitor center, I picked up this little paperback for about $10 entitled Pigsfoot Jelly and Persimmon Beer.
It's a compendium of interviews, oral histories, and articles about food practices and customs in Virginia that were written up during the Depression under the Federal Writers Project.
Looks pretty interesting, and even has the info about Brunswick stew that I was looking for a couple of days ago.
I'll let y'all know what's in it after I've read a bit more.
