Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.86
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

A través de esta obra, de la serie 'Manual Práctico de la vida autosuficiente', John Seymour, uno de los grandes precursores del autoabastecimiento, nos ofrece información práctica sobre: almacenamiento y conserva de los productos del huerto; elaboración de cerveza, vino, sidra y vinagre; planificación y fabricación de mantequilla y queso; productos artesanales: cestería, hilatura de lana y algodón, tintes y tejidos, fabricación de ladrillos y tejas, trabajos en madera y mucho más. Actualmente, la alimentación es cada vez más cara, y se observa un renacer del huerto como autoabastecimiento. La gente se da cuenta de que de ese modo puede ahorrar una parte importante de sus ingresos, que sus comidas saben y sientan mejor y que sus hijos crecen más sanos. Y una de las sensaciones más satisfactorias que hay es contribuir a que la naturaleza dé alimentos atractivos y nutritivos a partir de muy poca cosa. Allí donde hace unos años había, en toda Europa, miles de parcelas sin cultivar, existe ahora una larga lista de espera para poder adquirirlas. La horticultura está perdiendo en todas partes su imagen de entretenimiento para jubilados; los jóvenes se interesan por su aprendizaje y se buscan nuevas técnicas.
