nice book December 3, 2008 as always the 'for dummies' series is always full of interesting, educational information without being boring. alot of the info in the book can be found on the fda websites for free download, but it's got some good solid info and makes a nice gift for the novice canner.
I Anint no dumby now.... September 3, 2008 Canning & Preserving for DummiesI bought this book so I could learn the old art of preserving. I live in Maine and most of my neighbors have small farms and blueberry fields, so they offer me fresh fruits and vegetables all summer long, but I want to preserve them for those long, cold Maine winter nights.Hehehehehe. This book helped me preserve over 20 different fruits and vegetables and I love it. I now have most of my Xmas gifts all done.
The Dummies Series for regular people August 4, 2008 I LOVE THIS BOOK!! It clearly explains how to and when to can foods. I use it like my canning dictionary and reference it constantly. I also am waiting on the Blue Ball Book which I read some of at WalMart and that book also is a big help! So, now I know what 2 books I will keep in my kitchen library to help make canning a success for myself and my son.

If you are thinking of canning summer's bounty, this is a great place to start. Step by step basic instructions on how to thrill and not kill your friends and family with home canned goods.
unsatisfactory June 19, 2008 2 out of 7 found this review helpful
I give this book a "U" for unsatisfactory. It has NO information on canning meat, poultry or fish !!! It recommends another book - apparently the author thinks it's way too hard and scary to can meat. It isn't - buy another book with more practical information in it.
