Mr Coffey has done it again with this sequel to his earlier volume on home canning. It is a definitive resource on both the merits and how-to of this old art and science. Dedicated to the author's grandmother, who taught him to can and preserve food, and to his mother, this volume includes a "Questions & Answers" section that will be helpful to both novices and more experienced food preservers. J.R. Coffey holds a degree in baking from Baltimore International Culinary College and has more than twenty years of home canning experience - this expertise becomes quite evident to all who peruse (and use) this resource!
