A delicious and delightful narrative history of pie in America, from the colonial era through the civil rights movement and beyond.With corresponding recipes for each chapter and sidebars of quirky facts throughout, this book—winner of the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP) Award for Best Literary or Historical Food Writing—is an entertaining, informative, and utterly charming food history for bakers, dessert lovers, and history aficionados alike.
Ultimately, the story of pie is the story of America itself, and it’s time to dig in.
From the 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. But America’s history with pie has not always been so sweet.
After all, it was a slice of cherry pie at the Woolworth’s lunch counter on a cool February afternoon that helped to spark the Greensboro sit-ins and ignited a wave of anti-segregation protests across the South during the civil rights movement. Molasses pie, meanwhile, captures the legacies of racial trauma and oppression passed down from America’s history of slavery, and Jell-O pie exemplifies the pressures and contradictions of gender roles in an evolving modern society.
We all know the warm comfort of the so-called “All-American” apple pie . . . but just how did pie become the symbol of a nation?
In Sweet Land of Liberty: A History of America in 11 Pies, award-winning food writer Rossi Anastopoulo cracks open our relationship to pie with wit and good humor. For centuries, pie has been a malleable icon, co-opted for new social and political purposes. Anastopoulo traces the pies woven into our history, following the evolution of our country across centuries of innovation and change.

very poor quality
Size: 14, Color: Black
they are a peice of garbage, within about a month since i started wearing them the outer material started pealing off within two months the upper separated from the soles so i had to go to a shoemaker to sew them back together, within some few months the insoles completely wore out rendering the shoes unwearable, now mind you that i do not abuse shoes but use them in a normal office oriented enviorment, i will for sure not be buying these shoes again

Sleek and classy loafer
Size: 10.5, Color: Black
Was skeptical on this purchase but I have to say, well worth it. Not super expensive but very comfortable. Wears well for summer dress attire for taking your lady out for a dinner or show. Casual yet classy.
Not a bad buy.

Great Step In Shoe
Size: 11, Color: Cognac
For people (like me) that have physical and/or medical issues that makes it difficult to bend over to put shoes on, or even to just tie shoes, these shoes make that process so much easier! I have been wearing similar "step in" shoes from another manufacturer (Kizix) that has stopped making leather shoes that are more stylish and business like, similar to this. I haven't tried to polish them yet, but I assume that they will shine up just fine - and they look good now, with a great finish. The sole of the shoe is a solid rubber and I don't slip when I am wearing these, and I am quite impressed by their quality. I look forward to getting another style soon.

Great buy
Color: A-white Flowers Bf290, Size: Large
This shirt is so soft and comfortable. I went with a large, though my recommended size was an xl. I'm so glad that I read the other reviews and went with large, as this is the perfect size for me. Also, with the right color bra, I don't need an undershirt with this. Which is especially nice considering I wanted a nice, light spring/summer top. I also think that it could easily be dressed up or down depending on what it is paired with. Definitely worth the purchase.
