geological deposit, this book has layers. The first layer was on the ambitious 12-page

book is a complete reference, an encyclopedia of information and skills, anyone could
use. Here is a list of just some of the main subjects covered: Introduction To Plants; Grasses, grains & Canes; Garden Vegetables; Herbs & Flavorings; Bush & Brambel; Food Preservation; Introduction to Animal; Poultry; Goats; Cows & Home Dairying; Bees, Rabbits & Sheep. 858pp 8 ½ x 11 |
