Bound to the Fire
Author: Kelley Fanto Deetz
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813174740
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
For decades, smiling images of "Aunt Jemima" and other historical and fictional black cooks could be found on various food products and in advertising. Although these images were sanitized and romanticized in American popular culture, they represented the untold stories of enslaved men and women who had a significant impact on the nation's culinary and hospitality traditions, even as they were forced to prepare food for their oppressors. Kelley Fanto Deetz draws upon archaeological evidence, cookbooks, plantation records, and folklore to present a nuanced study of the lives of enslaved plantation cooks from colonial times through emancipation and beyond. She reveals how these men and women were literally "bound to the fire" as they lived and worked in the sweltering and often fetid conditions of plantation house kitchens. These highly skilled cooks drew upon knowledge and ingredients brought with them from their African homelands to create complex, labor-intensive dishes. However, their white owners overwhelmingly received the credit for their creations. Deetz restores these forgotten figures to their rightful place in American and Southern history by uncovering their rich and intricate stories and celebrating their living legacy with the recipes that they created and passed down to future generations.

Book Description
The first twelve books in the Djinn Wars post-apocalyptic paranormal romance saga in one super-sized boxed set! This set includes the complete text of all twelve books (11 full-length novels + 1 novella) — nearly a million words! CHOSEN In the aftermath of a fatal fever that nearly wipes out the world's population, survivor Jessica Monroe encounters the sensitive and helpful Jace...who just might be hiding secrets of his own. TAKEN With her djinn lover imprisoned by a survivalist group intent on eradicating all his kind, Jessica Monroe teams up with another of the Chosen to make the dangerous journey into the heart of Los Alamos. FALLEN When a group of rogue djinn attacks Taos, Jessica Monroe has no choice but to activate the device that was created to rid the elementals of their supernatural powers, even though the machine's very existence threatens to ruin the lives of her lover and friends. BROKEN Julia Innes, leader of the Immune survivors in Los Alamos, has done her best to ensure that the rest of her fellow Immune have settled into their new lives after the Dying. Even the friendly Santa Fe djinn have followed suit, creating a calm between the two cities — a world of peaceful co-existence. But all is not as it seems... FORSAKEN Ever since the Dying, Madison Reynolds has been in hiding. Leaving her underground sanctuary means risking her life at the hands of vengeful elementals hellbent on killing off the world's few remaining survivors. But when her curiosity and need for exploration get the best of her, she crosses paths with Qadim al-Syan, the new steward of Albuquerque…. FORBIDDEN Imprisoned in the outer circles of the otherworld, Aldair al-Ankara is doomed to unending suffering. Believing he’ll never escape, he’s accepted his dismal fate. But when destiny steps in, everything changes for Aldair. AWOKEN When Jordan is caught stealing supplies, she only hopes her bullet will slow down the tall, muscular djinn long enough to escape and continue her journey to the last remaining human outpost. Hasan al-Abyad plans to ferret out the fascinating, sad-eyed beauty’s secrets. Where she’s from. Where she’s going…and especially why she was never Chosen. ILLUMINATED Snowdrifts aren’t the only things that pose a danger in the mountain town of Cloudcroft, New Mexico. The only way to save her is reveal the extent of his magic…and trust that love will light her way to the safety of his arms. STOLEN Cornered by a djinn who’s been tracking her, Leila braces herself to be killed. Instead, her captor kisses her—and whisks her away to sanctuary. Once Malik convinces her that she is his Chosen, she’ll be safe. But evil waits for Malik to turn his back for one crucial moment…. FORGOTTEN When the Heat wipes out most of humanity, Deirdre builds a device that disables any nearby djinn. Amaal, trapped by one human woman carrying a device capable of rendering him helpless, resolves to use their attraction to gain her trust — and his freedom. He just never expected to lose his heart. DRIVEN Bailey easily eludes the djinn reavers in her “salvaged” Porsche…until she encounters the one djinn who just won’t give up. Guilt nearly crushes Nasim when he causes Bailey to crash. As she heals, he realizes she’s his Chosen. If he wins the race for her heart — best two out of three. UNSPOKEN When Idris, a djinn elder, encounters Amber, a young human woman he saved from attack during the Dying, each touch strengthens the desire humming between them. But he is acutely aware that Amber will soon be forced to choose between two paths…neither of which can ever lead to his arms.
