2.Matzoh Ball Gumbo: Culinary Tales of the Jewish SouthMatzoh Ball Gumbo: Culinary Tales of the Jewish South
from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
This was a wonderful topic for a book -- how Southernness and Jewishness came together in the Jewish kitchen. Cohen Ferris, herself a Jewish woman from a small town in Arkansas, has done exhaustive research, no doubt a labor of love, and has perpetuated many people's memories.

3.Attack and Die: Civil War Military Tactics and the Southern HeritageAttack and Die: Civil War Military Tactics and the Southern Heritage
from University Alabama Press
Price: $15.25

Customer Review:
I would like to give this 2.5 stars, but 3 is too much.
As a tactical discussion this is probably preferable to Paddy Griffith's work favoring vigorous frontal assault and discounting the new firepower. However, Attack and Die has some glaring omissions that hurt it, and it also makes some... more info

from Vintage
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Stephen Fox (who, I assume, is either a Yankee or has Yankee sympathies) has written a superb, sympathetic and pretty well true (I have read with interest the review by O.J. Semmes and I respect it) thriller based on the exploits of Captain Raphael Semmes (O.J. Semmes's great great grandfather) and... more info

10.[no image]Memoirs of Service Afloat During the War Between the States
from Blue & Grey Press

Customer Review:
The only bad thing I can say about this book is that on a very few occasions Semmes tends to get into some scholarly explanations about natural phenomena that, while interesting, slow the pace of the reading some.

Otherwise, Semmes tells of his adventures on the high seas with clarity and wit. The... more info
