| Publisher Description: More than 400 years of the history, mystery, legend, lore, luscious recipes and more related to the Christmas season as celebrated in the lovely lowcountry of the Carolinas, Georgia, Virginia, and the Outer Banks, the marshes, sea, forts, plantations and more. Historical and contemporary recipes complete this picture of the loving, lonely, spirited beautiful, forlorn, war torn in the low lying lands we love known as the Lowcountry. The Lowcountry Christmas A to Z includes traditions, transforming tales, and more that make this a delight. Marsh has a special place in her heart for the Lowcountry. When Marsh lived on the North Carolina coast more than twenty years ago, she began to research historical Lowcountry Christmas traditions. She lived in Savannah's historic district for twelve years, then in Palmetto Bluff for five, and recently moved to downtown Beaufort. Marsh just can't get away from this beautiful place with so much history. |
