Old-Time Recipes for Home Made Wines, Cordials and Liqueurs From Fruits, Flowers, Vegetables, and Shrubs (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Old-Time Recipes for Home Made Wines, Cordials and Liqueurs From Fruits, Flowers, Vegetables, and ShrubsThe idea of compiling this little volume occurred to me while on a visit to some friends at their summer home in a quaint New England village. The little town had once been a thriving seaport, but now con sisted of hardly more than a dozen Old fashioned Colonial houses facing each other along one broad, well-kept street. A few blind lanes led to less pretentious homes; and still farther back farmhouses dotted the landscape and broke the dead line of the horizon.For peace, contentment, and quiet seren ity of life, this little village might have been Arcadia; the surrounding country, the land of Beulah.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
