Book Description
"This bulletin has been prepared with two purposes in view : First, to outline the conditions which must be considered before attempting to make denatured alcohol, and second, to give in detail the practical methods for the manufacture of alcohol from potatoes. A discussion of general conditions is given in order to answer the many inquiries received at the Department as to the availability of various materials and it is hoped that persons interested, by a careful reading of this section, will be able to decide for themselves as to the value of any proposed material and the possibility of successfully making alcohol from it under their respective local conditions"--Purpose of the bulletin (p.5)

Book Description
This report is the second in a series of three evaluating underexploited African plant resources that could help broaden and secure Africa's food supply. The volume describes the characteristics of 18 little-known indigenous African vegetables (including tubers and legumes) that have potential as food- and cash-crops but are typically overlooked by scientists and policymakers and in the world at large. The book assesses the potential of each vegetable to help overcome malnutrition, boost food security, foster rural development, and create sustainable landcare in Africa. Each species is described in a separate chapter, based on information gathered from and verified by a pool of experts throughout the world. Volume I describes African grains and Volume III African fruits.
