Searching for the Dixie Barbecue  by Wilber W. Caldwell
Searching for the Dixie Barbecue, with its thought-provoking text and many black and white photos, is a culinary and cultural saga. Here are glimpses of a fragment of society still tenaciously clinging to deep-rooted, primal instincts to legends of the American frontier and to the hand-me-down, rural traditions of the Deep South. This is a story about (among other things) regional pride, homespun cookery, backwoods lore, self-effacing ?redneck? humor, shameless braggadocio, macho self-imagery, carnivorous bravado, porcine fundamentalism, boldfaced lies, and both culinary and social intransigence.

McWilliams also considers, among other fascinating topics, the effect of politics on cooking, the influence of African-American food traditions on mainstream cuisine, and the fate of English-inspired gardens in 16th-century Massachusetts.

Bouchon  by Thomas Keller
When Thomas Keller imagined opening a second restaurant in Napa Valley, next door to his French Laundry, he craved food that was less complicated, and a place that was more casual, where he could go every night after work. And that was how Bouchon was born. Bouchon cooking is about elevating to elegance the simplest ingredients. The only thing that's required is that you care about all the stages of the process - the slow browning of sliced onion for an onion soup, the proper cutting of the potatoes for a gratin, the right amount of salt on a raw chicken, how long you cook a pot de cr�me. Recipes include confit of duck, country-style p�t�s, soupe � l'oignon gratin�e, steamed mussels, steak frites, gigot d'agneau.
