- Summary:
- "In Table Talk Sidney Farr broadens her earlier spectrum of Appalachian life. Moving beyond her personal experience, she interviews a wide array of people from several states - Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Indiana. Some still live in the mountains, while others have moved away. In their own words, they convey the flavor of olden-day mountain life: "back home" kitchens, the warmth from wood-burning stoves, the smell of coffee simmering and biscuits baking, and the family gathered around the kitchen table to talk and eat."--Jacket.
