Summary
Join author Christopher Andrews on a delectable romp through the long food history of Mobile, Alabama. From its founding in 1702 by the French, Mobile has had a lot on its plate. Indeed, the story of food itself is a rich gumbo–a dish created in Mobile–tracing the city’s rich history, albeit in far more filling fashion. Native, European and African traditions met and blended here. From the colonial days through the Civil War and up to the present, this history serves up a full menu for foodies and history buffs alike.
