It offers a glimpse into the rich diversity of Florida's different regions, introducing those regional foodways and explaining how the recipes reflect the people and their histories. In this revision of the 1972 classic by a Florida food writer Lowis Carlton, scholar and cook Marisella Veiga has brought us a taste of the variety of dishes people in Florida eat. Veiga helps us understand what those dishes mean to the people who make them and demonstrates that Florida is much more than a just vacation destination and haven for retirees.\" -Lucy M. Long, PhD.
