For a quarter of a century in this unique setting, Frances Kitching operated a small, widely renowned restaurant and inn. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 11, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42155887001735,"sku":"9780764338175","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/926c3ce7f6843fcd8ef4d4b4bc4feaec.webp?v=1733239357","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/mrs-kitchings-smith-island-cookbook-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
