It's mostly the story of her family's move to Appalachia to live off their farm for one year, but it includes some great vegetarian recipes and tips for canning/freezing fresh produce.

I had somehow gotten the idea that the former was sort of a condensed version of the latter, but this may really not be the case. Have you read both? Hey Mike,

I haven’t read In Defense of Food, but did read The Omnivore’s Dilemma. I had somehow gotten the idea that the former was sort of a condensed version of the latter, but this may really not be the case.

Have you read both?

Is it strictly recipes or is there more "theory" and narrative? Have you read "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan? I highly recommend it. For me, it is a very good theoretical and generically practical read. On the very practical side, I reference "World's Healthiest Foods" by George Mateljan daily. It has transformed the way I cook.
