Tracing Roots: A Modern Approach to Living Off the Land is a beautifully photographed culinary journey through the seasons, with recipes emphasizing the use of home-grown ingredients at the peak of their freshness and flavors. Included in the book are instructions on beekeeping, raising chickens, planting and foraging, in addition to more than 100 recipes. Sumptuous photography by Jean Allsopp transports readers to the rustic simplicity of the American South and marks the introduction of a refreshing new voice in cooking.
