Canny LIttle Book - Sharon Beverly - Florida
This book, written almost 100 years ago, was probably a homemaker's bible for home canning. Its very proper wording only points to how lax we've become in our speech and writing.

The author gives thorough explanations of the various canning methods of those times. She explains every step and its timing in each of them. Since many homes lacked refrigeration a century ago, canning was an essential way of keeping foods throughout the year. She stresses that bacteria must be killed, or they could kill one's family.

Although a tedious read, it was interesting to learn about killing and canning one's own chickens and harvesting and canning the family's crop of vegetables and fruits. It makes me ever so more appreciative of the conveniences we enjoy today: fully stocked supermarkets, freezers, and other methods of storing foods.
