"The Faulk family of Monroeville, Alabama, is one of the South's most famous. The premier cook of the family, Sook Faulk, and her special fruitcakes are lovingly portrayed in Truman Capote's A CHRISTMAS MEMORY. But the Faulk's receipt files are filled with hundreds of receipts, all wonderful and evocative of a more gracious time. Now Marie Rudisill, Sook's niece and Truman Capote's aunt, has collected them as a tribute to her family and the way of life its foods and memories represent." - from the dust wrapper copy. Fine .
