Homefront Cooking by Tracey Enerson Wood

An intersection of three inseparable features of military life: stories, family, and food.
“What will grab attention and hearts are the many narratives of those who served” —Booklist

"A culinary delight for our men and women in uniform." —Tim Bryce, radio host and blogger

"Homefront Cooking is so much more than a cookbook. I've always said that you can get a window into the soul of a family when you look at what they do for each other in the kitchen. There you see love and creativity on full display, poured out amid the heat of the oven and stove-top. That holds especially true in the pages of this book, as veterans and their loved ones share the recipes that bring them together and strengthen their bonds. I'm always searching for ways to support the best and bravest among us, so I was particularly thrilled to contribute a recipe (Braised Beef Short Ribs on Pg. 199) but I'm even more excited to try all the other enticing dishes in this delightful, heartfelt tome." —celebrity chef Robert Irvine; founder of the Robert Irvine Foundation

"One of those culinary compendiums that will prove to be an immediate and enduringly popular addition to personal, family, and community library cookbook collections." —Midwest Book Review

"What a great read! Great recipes from all around the world. Even if you aren't a cook, you will love the accompanying stories that reflect the joys and challenges of our military life! Highly recommend!" —Toni Hill, army wife of 36 years; army mom of 9 years
