Includes From Whence We Come by Debra Dixon
Southerners don't care who your great-great-great-great Grandfather
was or how many times he met the queen. What we want to know is whether
or not you have the coat he was married in. Or the first pair of shoes
he bought for his children. Or the three teacups and five saucers your
great Aunt Precious didn't break over Uncle Dickie's head when he came
home too drunk to know he smelled like adultery.
A sweeter, smoother-edged American South beckons from the pages of SWEET
TEA AND JESUS SHOES, a collection of six stories by Donna Ball, Sandra
Chastain, Debra Dixon, Virginia Ellis, Nancy Knight, and Deborah Smith.
A horse called Cookie, vacation Bible school, quilt-crocheting parties
and coonskin caps conjure up the comfortable if ornery charms of a
legendary culture. -- Publisher's Weekly In May,
BelleBooks first publishing venture, SWEET TEA AND JESUS SHOES will take
readers on a delightful trip through the south and its traditions
through charming vignettes from its six southern belle author partners,
Deborah Smith, Virginia Ellis, Nancy Knight, Sandra Chastain, Debra
Dixon and Donna Ball. These fine veteran writers not only treat their
fans to wonderful stories but also dish up their favorite recipes like
Sweet Tea and Mama's Pecan Pie for readers to savor! Don't miss this
simply yummy anthology! -- Pat Rouse, Romantic Times
