Default Help, did I buy the wrong book?

A while back we were talking about brineing on a different thread and I mentioned seeing Edna Lewis on Sara Moltons' show ( I was really impressed with her)....Well I attempted to find her work at the book store. I thought they said she published 2 books? Anyway I ordered 'The taste of country cooking' and bought it.

The intro. includes her family history and life growing up on the farm and how it influenced their cooking. BUT I can't find any reference to her restaurant.? Plus no reference to dump cooking....

Did I buy the wrong author or the wrong book?

Also her fried chicken recipe had no reference to brining, which I'd swear she did on Sara's show....I thought that was a big part of her technique?????

Help, should I have bought her other book? Does anyone have it?

Wendy if you don't get an answer post your question on the Food Tv forum or email them and ask. They should know....
