Everything you need to know, from skinning on by Holly Ingraham (Honolulu, HI USA)  5 Stars
August 11, 1998
This has been in print so long because it is so good. Written by someone raised before gobbledegook became so fashionable, it is clear, practical, and as simple as it can be. Only a live teacher could improve on it. Gives several methods of treating hides, including making the invaluable "prairie iron" rawhide, buckskinning, actual tanning, and tawing (tanning with the hair on). Especially good for estimating times and amounts.

| Meat Smoking And Smokehouse Design
by Stanley Marianski (Author), Robert Marianski (Contributor), Adam Marianski (Contributor)
Most books on smoking just give some elementary information and then are filled with recipes; this book is the reverse, scholarly information and theory as it applies to smoking meats and a few recipes that will get one started. While various recipes usually get the spotlight, it is the authors’ opinion that the technical know-how behind preparing meats and sausages is far more important. There is a section with some basic recipes, but after reading the book one should be able to create his...
