Fortunately Cynthia Graubart and Nathalie Dupree were once again at SIBA. Last year they gave out of this book before I made it to the breakfast where they spoke. This year I made sure to get there early enough to get the book.
Cynthia's husband, Clif, is a fellow Mercer University Press author
(The Curious Vision of Sammy Levitt and Other Stories). They are friends of Pat Conroy (who wrote a forward for the cookbook) and Cassandra King Conroy (who wrote a blurb for both
In Pursuit and
Swimming with Serpents, my books). I had the pleasure of meeting them at the South Carolina Book Festival about a month ago.
Clif and I sat in on some podcast taping for River Jordan (
http://www.riverjordan.us/clearstoryr...) at Clear Story Radio
http://www.clearstoryradio.com/. River is a Panama City, Florida native.

I plan not only to READ this cookbook, I also plan to COOK from it. Which will be quite a surprise for my husband.
