For a quarter of a century in this unique setting, Frances Kitching operated a small, widely renowned restaurant and inn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor Susan Stiles Dowell, working closely with her, gathered more than one hundred of her recipes—many of them from the generation-to-generation oral tradition. This is more than just a regional cookbook. In Mrs. Dowell’s sensitive and luminous telling of the lore and lure of this remote island, and in forty evocative photographs, colorful people and places come to life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e128 Pages\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-text-center rpi-attribute-label\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e6.1\" x 9.1\" x .6\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51807012585768,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2004\/6295\/files\/IMG_54582.jpg?v=1787342043","url":"https:\/\/largercross.com\/products\/mrs-kitchings-smith-island-cookbook","provider":"Larger Cross","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
