      In terms of embracing all things Southern, there's probably no better source right now than the unabashedly titled Garden & Gun (G&G) magazine. The publication has now produced this "guide to living the good life," providing 75 "instructional essays" covering subjects that include how to fry okra, how to "pull off" seersucker, and, yup, how to shoot a dove. Half of the entries are drawn from the pages of G&G, with additional original content from Southern writers including Matt and Ted Lee, Roy Blount Jr., and Daniel Wallace. VERDICT Distills the spirit, with recipes, of Southern living.
