Description
Part history, part folklore, this is an account of the Cracker heritage of North Florida, its history, and its disappearance as today's fast-paced society reaches into the remote backwoods. From the language they spoke to the houses they built, from moonshine stills and cowhunting to ""grits and gravy,"" Dana Ste. Claire offers a tour of Crackerdom.
