Every time I go to amazon I look at that book but never buy it. For all I know, it's residing in my cart with all the other "saved for later" items. Let us know how you like it!
 

I did some canning for the first time this summer. I canned some dill pickles, bread and butter pickles, tomatoes and my husband canned some figs and some peppers. It wasn't as hard as I thought and those books will help I'm sure. One tip: I put the labels on the lid instead of the jar. That way when the jar is empty you don't have to work hard to remove the label, just throw the lid away. You can't reuse them anyway. Save the jars and bands to use again.
 

Stocking up from Rodale is a great book. I also love Edon Waycott's Preserving the Taste but I think it is O/P.
