Cookbook Dedication: Day Three

Grace Hartley was the food editor at the Atlanta Journal for more than 40 years. She wrote the 1976 Southern Cookbook.

This is the dedication page:

“In the memory of Mama, Allie Briley Hartley, a Most Remarkable Woman.

Dedicated to all the good cooks who have made the book possible. And special thanks to my husband, Judson Germon, to Mary Patterson, and to Faith Brunson, who encouraged me to put these pages together.”

Grace was such a dedicated journalist that she married Judson at the courthouse during her lunch hour because she was under deadline.
