I love this book not only for the recipes but for the stories from the depression. Since sugar was in short supply during that time I find some of the recipes are great for a person that is watching their sugar intake.
I also want to cook some of the recipes that I remember my grandmother making for me such as corn cakes, fried mush, homemade sourkraut because I think if I don't pass on the cusine of the food that I ate while I was growing up I will assimilate into the northern culture too much. If you kill the cuisine, you kill the culture.

I ordered the whole collection of these books. There are five, unless I missed some. I'm so glad I did. Most of them arrived today and I've been sitting here reading Volume I. Clare on YouTube is wonderful, I ordered her book, too, but her family ate mostly variations on potatoes and onions. This book has a lot more variety. The recipes are all so simple, so inventive. These people who lived through this time were so resilient. They made good meals out of a few simple ingredients.

And the stories! "The locusts came in clouds and were so heavy they caused the grain harvest binders to clog up and stall." Grace Nelson, Beldenville WI. and "Ed Sylte worked on a Rindgeland, Wisconsin, farm in Dunn County for his room and board. They had cornmeal for breakfast. It was warmed up for dinner and then it was fried for supper everyday. Eventually Ed upgraded his job by finding a place where meat was served occassionaly."

The depths of their hardships were beyond anything I can understand and apply to my own daily life. My daughter and I will be discussing these books at length. I know hard times are coming for many of us but I don't know if they'll ever again get to where we can understand what these stalwart souls endured. And if they do, well, we have a lot of cookbooks now to help us through them.

This is one of the best books I've seen yet on simple meal preparation when lacking a wide variety of ingredients. The recipes come from people that lived during the depression of the late 20's and 30's. They lacked money and the ability to buy a large variety of foods. They prepared many meals with just basic ingredients like eggs, sugar, salt, and flour. If you have basic ingredients in your home, this book is for you. You should never go hungry if you have basic ingredients and this book in the kitchen. The stories in the book are also very real and will make you realize how good we have it now. Again, one of the best books I've bought in awhile. Worth every penny.

It wasn't all depression cooking but the first half was. I loved the stories and recipes. The stories alone were very eye opening and people today would not survive another one. There are not enough farms. This shows what it takes and the ingenuity of a people that is not within the people today. I wish it was more. The second half of book was like other cookbooks. I want to get the other two volumes if they are like this one.

This is a delightful book on two levels. It provides so many recipes that use basic types of ingredients and are easily assembled and cooked. So many are the dishes that my mother, who was a housewife in the Depression, served me as a child. It is an important book historically because it has so many personal memories of people who lived in the Dust Bowl era. Combine the food and the history, and you have a winning combination for history buffs who like era authentic cuisine. The typewritten pages are distracting.

The best part about this cookbook is not the recipes it is the stories of how families coped with the harsh realities of the Great Depression. This wonderful book brings it all to life and gives the reader a deep appreciation of the ingenuity and resilience of our ancestors.

Lore, stories and recipes from the time of the Great Depression. For the stories alone, it's a priceless bit of history as those who lived it are fewer each day. The recipes are great to have if you're looking to make something with only what's on hand (and that's not much). I, for one, hope to never have to make a meal of Wisconsin gravy.

This cookbook is beyond being a book of recipes. It is a look back to the time that none of us want our children to experience, except as a lesson in togetherness and caring. It should be required reading in every classroom, to point out what our grandparents experienced. If you have teenagers buy it just for the stories of the "Great Depression", to impress upon them how this country was, for lots of people.
