Book Description
An exciting tale of family, faith, and survival, Abner's Story begins in the 1730's after ten-year-old Abner and his friend Schotzy hear William Penn's land agent tell of the opportunities in Pennsylvania. The boys are excited and ask Abner's grandpa to teach them all they need to know to go to America, including how to build a house. As Grandpa is planning to repair Widow Schneider's porch the next day he agrees to begin by taking the boys along to help. However, he is unaware that Schotzy's grandfather, a widower, has plans of his own. He accompanies Schotzy to the work site where he sweet talks the widow and then disappears. The boys are caught up in a series of events over which they have no control. There is tension in the village because by law, everyone must worship in the official church. However, Abner's family belongs to a group that refused to do so. The king has forced Abner's father to work for him, and is beginning to clamp down on the dissidents. Trouble breaks out when several boys from their religious group play a prank at the official church. "This work makes a contribution toward retaining a fast-vanishing culture that of the Pennsylvania Dutch. One intriguing part of their culture is its language, which is a form of German rather than Dutch. The language is often interspersed with English words, and some English speakers of Pennsylvania Dutch intersperse their language with German words. It's all part of what makes the Pennsylvania Dutch seem so quaint. Abner's Story digs into that culture and its language. Indeed, it effectively begins before the Pennsylvania Dutch era to when they were farmers living in Germany. One other point: Abner's Story describes powwowing and other Pennsylvania Dutch superstitions. Powwowing, a kind of faith healing bordering on white magic, will intrigue readers turning these pages. Information on these practices, also on the wane in Pennsylvania Dutch culture, deserve to be captured for posterity. Abner's Story does just that." James McClure, Managing Editor, York Daily Record York, Pennsylvania. "As York County celebrates the past 250 years, we commend the heartfelt effort to document and preserve this facet of our heritage? Rarely have I read a story that expressed the feelings of the people who were not the stereotypical adventurers that we like to think came here. Rather, they are ordinary folks being stifled by others' belief systems. They only thought of leaving their beloved homeland after it was no longer safe to stay in their own homes." Karen Hostetter, Headquarters Manager, 250th Year Anniversary Committee of York County, York, Pennsylvania. Abner's Story is not difficult reading and is suitable for the entire family as well as public, private, and Christian schools. It is historically accurate, fast moving, filled with interesting characters, laced with ethical values and humor, as well as pathos and mystery.

An Onion in My Pocket
Author: Deborah Madison
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0525656022
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
As a groundbreaking chef and beloved cookbook author, Deborah Madison—“The Queen of Greens” (The Washington Post)—has profoundly changed the way generations of Americans think about cooking with vegetables, helping to transform “vegetarian” from a dirty word into a mainstream way of eating. But before she became a household name, Madison spent almost twenty years at the Zen Center in the midst of counterculture San Francisco. In this warm, candid, and refreshingly funny memoir, she tells the story of her life in food—and with it, the story of the vegetarian movement—for the very first time. From her childhood in Northern California’s Big Ag heartland to sitting sesshin for hours on end at the Tassajara monastery; from her work in the kitchen of the then-new Chez Panisse to the birth of food TV to the age of farmers’ markets everywhere, An Onion in My Pocket is a deeply personal look at the rise of vegetable-forward cooking and a manifesto for how to eat (and live) well today.

Stalking the Wild Asparagus
Author: Euell GIBBONS

ISBN: 9780811739023
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
Nearly sixty years ago an unknown writer named Euell Gibbons (1911-1975) presented a book on gathering wild foods to the New York publisher David McKay Co. Together they settled on the title, Stalking the Wild Asparagus. No one expected that this iconic title would become part of the American language, nor did they anticipate the revival of interest in natural food and in environmental preservation in which this book played a major role. Euell Gibbons became an unlikely celebrity and made many television appearances. Stalking the Wild Asparagus has sold the better part of half a million copies since the original publication and has been continuously in print since 1962. Euell Gibbons was one of the few people in this country to devote a considerable part of his life to the adventure of living off the land. He sought out wild plants all over North America and turned ordinary fruits and vegetable into delicious dishes. His book includes recipes for vegetable and casserole dishes, breads, cakes, muffins and twenty different pies. Plus jellies, jams, teas, and wines, and how to sweeten them with wild honey or homemade maple syrup.
