Alabama's history and culture revealed through fourteen iconic foods, dishes, and beverages The Story of Alabama in Fourteen Foods explores well-known Alabama food traditions to reveal salient histories of the state in a new way. In this book that is part history, part travelogue, and part cookbook, Emily Blejwas pays homage to fourteen emblematic foods, dishes, and beverages, one per chapter, as a lens for exploring the diverse cultures and traditions of the state. Throughout Alabama's history, food traditions have been fundamental to its customs, cultures, regions, social and political movements, and events. Each featured food is deeply rooted in Alabama identity and has a story with both local and national resonance. Blejwas focuses on lesser-known food stories from around the state, illuminating the lives of a diverse populace: Poarch Creeks, Creoles of color, wild turkey hunters, civil rights activists, Alabama club women, frontier squatters, Mardi Gras revelers, sharecroppers, and Vietnamese American shrimpers, among others. A number of Alabama figures noted for their special contributions to the state's foodways, such as George Washington Carver and Georgia Gilmore, are profiled as well. Alabama's rich food history also unfolds through accounts of community events and a food-based economy. Highlights include Sumter County barbecue clubs, Mobile's banana docks, Appalachian Decoration Days, cane syrup making, peanut boils, and eggnog parties. Drawing on historical research and interviews with home cooks, chefs, and community members cooking at local gatherings and for holidays, Blejwas details the myths, legends, and truths underlying Alabama's beloved foodways. With nearly fifty color illustrations and fifteen recipes, The Story of Alabama in Fourteen Foods will allow all Alabamians to more fully understand their shared cultural heritage.Binding Type: Hardcover

Perfect for such a special occasion
Color: Brilliant Black, Size: Medium, Color: Brilliant Black, Size: Medium
I bought this suit for my son's graduation and was very satisfied. It looks elegant and modern, and the fit was excellent. The fabric is comfortable and of good quality—ideal for wearing for several hours. I received many compliments that day. Without a doubt, a very good choice for important and special events.

Feels Tailored, Perfect Fit, Fast Delivery, Zero Complaint
Color: Black, Size: Large
I honestly did not expect this level of quality ordering a suit online, especially on such short notice, but this completely exceeded my expectations.
First off, the fit is incredible. The jacket feels like it was tailored specifically for me, it wraps cleanly around the shoulders and arms without being tight, and tapers perfectly at the waist. I still have full range of motion, which is rare for a fitted jacket. The one-button design gives it a modern, sleek look that really stands out.
The pants are just as impressive. They fit perfectly, not too tight, not too loose, with a clean, straight fall that looks amazing with dress shoes. The length is spot on, and the overall structure makes it look very polished. I also appreciate the thoughtful details like secure closures, belt loops, and well-placed pockets.
The vest was the cherry on top. It fits clean and adds an extra level of sophistication to the whole outfit. Together, the full set gives a very sharp, put-together look without feeling overdone.
What really shocked me was the speed. I ordered this late at night and received it the next morning. That alone would have been impressive, but to combine that kind of delivery with this level of quality is next-level.
Overall, this suit looks, feels, and fits far better than I expected at this price point. If you're hesitant about buying a suit online, this is definitely one of those rare cases where it absolutely pays off.
Highly recommend.

One piece was true to size and the other wasn’t
Color: Brilliant Black, Size: XX-Large
Looked nice and perhaps decent quality for the price, but one piece fit while the other didn’t, like I forgot which, but either the jacket fit, but the pants were too big or small or vice versa . Had to return it.

Great value for a one-time event! Perfect for graduation.
Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large
I bought this suit for my son's graduation, and it was exactly what we needed. Since he will probably only wear it once, I didn't want to spend a fortune at a high-end department store. For the price, the quality is surprisingly good; it looked sharp and he received a lot of compliments during the ceremony. We ordered a size Large (L) based on their sizing chart, and it was true to size and fit him perfectly. The fabric is lightweight but doesn't look cheap at all, making this a fantastic, excellent cost-benefit choice if you are looking for an option for a one-time event. Highly recommended!
