SUMMARY- This was first published by Hearthside Press in 1970, and I can see why it's considered a key reference. It wasn't originally part of mom's collection of books. I was fortunate to find a copy on www.paperbackswap.com to add to the collection. There's a wealth of information in this book, all densely packed and illustrated by the author.
