I took this book off my wishlist after checking it out at the library. In my opinion, there are better and more extensive books out there (and in my personal library). Gives some recipes and some crafts. Even tells you how to milk a cow - though, again, you would need to buy a more specific book if you wanted to actually raise animals. There is some good information, but the other books in my collection cover most, if not all, in much more detail. Not for the serious homesteader or even hobbyist. For a little bit of everything (that also goes into more depth), one would be better getting Carla Emery's Encyclopedia of Country Living.
