Vibration Cooking or the Travel Notes of a Geechee Girl

Still cooking by the ''vibration'' method (which involves a fetching disregard for measurements or time), Smart-Grosvenor calls this updated volume, titled Vibration Cooking of the Travel Notes of a Geechee Girl, the ''third coming'' of a book that ''slipped through the cracks for more than two decades and lived.'' Since its first coming in 1970, her cook's tour has passed from hand to hand, enlightening readers on the cooking of South Carolina Gullah culture. The author's prose has kept its kick, as have the recipes for the staples of her youth: grits, greens, and fried chicken. B+
