Great Cookbook idea! 
I am a dietetic student in South Western Virginia. This cookbook has many foods similar to those eaten in the area for all races. It could also be entitled Heart Healthy Cooking: Southern Style. These recipes are great alternatives for people who want to make their country cooking healthier.
