"A rich, satisfying account of one woman's cross-country search for the age-old dessert." -- Entertainment Weekly An engaging and quirky travelogue, cultural and personal excursion, and adventure-cookbook that brings back from the highways and back roads a homemade slice of America Crossing class and color lines, and spanning the nation (Montana has its huckleberry, Pennsylvania its shoofly, and Mississippi its sweet potato), pie--real, homemade pie--has meaning for all of us.
