Stories; Student Authors and Interviewees N2 - This captivating book of recollections celebrates the holiday traditions of Appalachian families as passed from one generation to the next. Based on Foxfire students' interviews with neighbors and family members, the memories shared here are from a simpler time, when gifts were fewer but perhaps more precious, and holiday tables were laden with traditional favorites. More than just reminiscences, however, ###A Foxfire Christmas# includes instructions for recreating many of the ornaments, toys, and recipes that make up so many family traditions, from Chicken and Dumplings to Black Walnut Cake UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=354835 ER -
