Introduction -- Apple pie -- Pumpkin pie -- Molasses pie -- Sweet potato pie -- Pecan pie -- Chiffon pie -- Mock apple pie -- Jell-o pie -- Bean pie -- Quiche - Tofu cream pie -- Revisiting apple pie.
From pumpkin pie gracing the Thanksgiving table to the apple pie at the Fourth of July picnic, nearly every American shares a certain nostalgia for a simple circle of crust and filling. Anastopoulo cracks open our relationship to pie to examine America's history with pie--and how pie become the symbol of a nation. With corresponding recipes for each chapter and sidebars of quirky facts throughout, this food history is for bakers, dessert lovers, and history aficionados. -- adapted from jacket
