Straight-forward, no nonsense and filled with valuable infor - By: , 20 Jan 1999 
This book has many tremendous, no nonsense, inexpensive, simple, low-tech, & energy saving ways to keep our harvests fresh.
It has reminded me of some simple techniques I'd forgotten, & taught me several new ones. I highly recommend it for those interested in what Y2K might present.
This book gives the complete root cellaring picture. - By: , 17 Jan 1999 We're fortunate to have bought a property with a well designed root cellar already in place. Until I read this book, I had no idea how a root cellar 'worked'. This book suggests what foods are best for root cellaring, how long to expect to store them, & what temperatures should be maintained. Had I not read this book I would have wasted time & enery, & lost the nutrients in some foods by canning them rather than root cellaring them. A city dweller friend of mine borrowed my book & has decided to buy it. There are variety of good root cellar plans complete with illustrations & drawings for nearly any situation.
very informative, and complete in all areas of information. - By: , 06 Oct 1998 I was looking for how to build a root celler. Several Ideas were presented, along with what can be stored, how to store it & how long it could likely be stored. I first saw this book as a loan from another library. Now I want to get one to have as reference in my library.
