Give Us This Day, Our Daily Bread - A very unique and unusual cookbook, researched and compiled by high school students, years ago, in a very rural community of deep East Texas. The oldest members of the community were interviewed who, in turn, gave their mothers and fathers recipes for cooking, including wild game, and processing foods around the 1850s, along with many stories they told about how it was. Written directly as they said it in their quaint, old-time East Texas dialect- "It was nothin for mama to go outside and wring a chicken's neck before breakfast." As authentic and real as it gets. A must for all recipe book collectors and historians. Comes with an 1839 map of Texas, showing East Texas, with its old roads leading in and out of it - there weren't many. These early pioneers were a very isolated people.
