Pat Conroy Cookbook

Pat Conroy is one of Fripp Island's and Beaufort, SC's most famous residents. He has written many books about life and growing up in the low country. I am a big collector of cookbooks and have bought scores of this book to give away to family, friends, and professional colleagues. I love to read cookbooks. Especially those that tell a story. This one doesn't disappoint. In every chapter Pat recounts the many interesting events in his life and how food always plays an important role. I highly recommend this book to all of you who like to read cookbooks.
Author Anne Rivers Siddons is quoted as saying, "THE PAT CONROY COOKBOOK is more than just that. It's a virtual Ode To Joy. Read it; cook from it. You will eat better than you ever have in your life, and will know more about Pat Conroy, perhaps, than he would ever tell you."
If you are interested in an autographed copy, the Beaufort Bookstore 2127 Boundry Street, Beaufort, SC, 843-525-1066 usually has them for sale.
