No on the Frankie A book, but I do have a few cookbooks by Rick Rodgers, like them, and think he is under-rated in the genre.

I know nominations are over, so I’m just sharing this here for lack of another place. I’d be very interested in exploring the new book, Gullah Geechee Home Cooking.

Great suggestion! Let’s remember to nominate it for next month. It’s really new though, so it might take a while to trickle in to libraries and get the momentum to be COTM. I always like to go back through the previous nomination thread when the new one comes around, to see what books were nominated that I want to keep pushing.
