The start of the First World War focused society's attention on the
limits of the public food supply and the need for food conservation
to support the war-effort. Housewives of all classes, even those
with little or no agricultural experience, were called upon to
start Victory Gardens. With this call came the question of how to
preserve these garden products for use throughout the year. In
response, the art of canning and preserving once again came into
vogue. To aid housewives with no prior experience in this area,
Mary Catherine Hughes published this 1918 work, which provides
clear instructions and recipes for canning and preserving using the
simplified cold-pack method.

wheels of Sir Thomas Lipton's grocery empire throughout the
turbulent first half of the 20th Century, broken only by military
service during WW1, which took him to the lesser known theatre of
war in East Africa. He was a workaholic, intent on providing for
his family. From shop floor to Board of Directors, he was a company

world wars and the financial depression He kept a meticulous diary
during those years, which gives a fascinating insight into the
impact of global conflict on a nation. This is a tribute to a
generation.
