Beautifully presented in black and white on cream colored pages. This is an interesting collection of memoirs, history, photographs, and recipes from one of the USAs prestigous schools.

Sampling of recipes: Apricot Iced Tea; Spiced Papaya Salsa with Grilled Shrimp; Sweet Potato Soup; Roast Suckling Pig; Southern Barbecue; Southern Corn Bread Dressing; Pkra with Corn and Tomaotes; Church Social Yeast Bisuits; Dr. Carver's Sweet Potato Muffins; Red Velvet Cake.
