This is a fantastic little cookbook. Although it is obviously too small to be your primary cookbook, it does have some great recipes. The cornmeal biscuits and the hushpuppies are outstanding. The main dish recipes range from the familiar (fried chicken, fried catfish, etc.) to the more exotic (pecan stuffed pork chops, shrimp stuffed eggplant, etc.). There are a variety of side dishes (black eyed peas, dirty rice, etc.) and sweets (beignots, peanut butter pie, etc.) The book is also very attractive. All of the dishes are accompanied by a full page picture. Within the recipes, there are adorable little sketches of food and palm trees. Many recipes also include cooking tips that would be applicable elsewhere.
