The book is as good as it was in 1986. It is exactly the same -- just a new publisher. I learned a valuable lesson that the dates listed for books are the publishing dates not the copyright date. Now I have two copies -- the original 1986 and another in a newer wrapper.

It is a very good book that covers harvesting, freezing, canning, and drying. Originally published by Rodale Press.

This book is a must have for anyone looking to utilize every ounce of produce from a garden, or every pound of meat from their butcher or personal livestock. The applications range from drying and pickling to curing and even fermentation as a means to preserve food. Anyone looking to preserve food the way our forefathers did would be be well advised to pick up a copy and dig in.

Excellent source for all my preserving needs. Great for all kinds of fruits and veggies. Great price also.

This book is very informative. As one that cans and freezes it has great ideas and tips. Some I didn't even know of. It will be a great help next time I can and freeze.
