Book

I got given this book "Easymade WINE and COUNTRY DRINKS" by Mrs Gennery Taylor.

Its dirty, mouldy and on the verge of falling to pieces but its my first book on brewing and i have fallen in love with it at first sight.

Mre Gennery loved her wines and has lots or recipes i'll probably never make but she is passionate about her subject and encourages experimentation and thrift. A previous owner has annotated recipes with the dates that they tried them and i think thats fantastic because my fingers itch to doodle and annotate factual texts that i have occasion to read.

I think my reprint is from 1970 and the move towards decimalisation. One man's rubbish is another man's treasure.
