Publishers Text

Prairie homes of the 1800s were often lonely places far from friends and neighbours. Farm families - anchored by strong women - became legendary for their hardy self-reliance and no-nonsense wisdom. "The Prairie Farmer" magazine was sometimes a woman's only resource for advice and ideas on how to make do. In this fascinating collection - drawn from the "Prairie Farmer" from 1841 to 1900 - are dozens of recipes for such down-home dishes as Green Corn Soup, Smothered Chicken, and Providence Cake, interspersed with tips and colourful stories submitted by the magazine's loyal readers.
