Title: Cross Creek Cookery
Description: Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings was the author of the Pulitzer Prize winning book, *The Yearling*, along with other fiction and non-fiction based on her life in rural Florida. After publishing a memoir of her life at Cross Creek where she described many of the dishes she prepared there, *Cross Creek Cookery* was published in 1942 in response to requests for recipes for the dishes described in the earlier book.  The recipes include local delicacies like alligator tail, Minorcan gopher stew and her fabulous "Utterly Deadly Pecan Pie". The recipes are delicious and so are the stories that go with them.
