1 Being born and raised in the South doesn ' t particularly make me an expert on the South. Quite the contrary; some may argue, it would tend to make one prejudiced. Having never lived anywhere in the North, the Yanks maintain that I don ' t have any basis for comparison. Not so. I have been out of the South, usually, just long enough to know I wanted to head back south in a hurry. You don ' t have to eat an entire apple to know it ' s bad. Lest some Northerners get their hackles up over that statement; the North is not bad. I have always enjoyed my brief stays up North. I like the North. But l love the South. I love, yawl come back, heah, and especially because I know whoever says it means it. I love the hospitality, Southern style. The cooking, Southern style. The lifestyle, Southern style. I love the Southern style. Many years ago, Phil Harris recorded a song called That ' s what l like about the South that extolled the Souths virtues. Baked rice and candied yams, sugar cured Virginia hams, basement full of them berry jams. Collard red and turnip greens, hamhocks and buttered beans, home grown down in New Orleans . . . that ' s what I like about the South. ' That ' s not what I like about the South. That ' s what I love about the South. 28 PROLOGUE
