From REMEMBERING BILL NEAL: FAVORITE RECIPES FROM A LIFE IN COOKING by Moreton Neal

Preface

When Bill Neal died in 1991, he was just hitting his stride as a food writer. The success of his first two cookbooks allowed him to retire from the grueling job of running a restaurant kitchen, and by 1988 he was devoting most of his time to writing. Bill's flair for the written word, his passion for history, and his genius for cooking and gardening promised so much more for his readers. His untimely death surely deprived us of many volumes.
