DESCRIPTION:
We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive
I recomend this as a start, no book has it all. A. Mathewson I bought this book because I like what I read from it online @ electricscotland.com/food/preservation/index.htm but I wanted a hard copy.It has a lot of very good comprehensive information but it is almost 100 years old and there are some things that have been learned since then. So this should by no means should be used as an only source of information, but as a very good starting base of information. The modern info that is available has changed very little, but what has changed is safety information.
The material presented is designed primarily for the housewife and farmer, to assist them in preserving surplus farm products for their own use.. From the Back CoverThis book aims to tell the ""why"" of the various methods of food preservation, to present labor saving methods and to give simple and explicit directions that may be easily followed
