“The Nut Growers Handbook” is a fantastic, comprehensive guide to all things nuts, with a focus on growing them. It offers the reader simple, step-by-step instructions for the propagation, planting, cultivation, and harvesting of nuts; as well as information on their flavours, preparation and cooking, natural habitats, properties and characteristics, and much more. Contents include: “Nut Growing and its Place in American Agriculture”, “The Chestnut”, “Filberts and Other Hazels”, “The English Walnut”, “The Black and Other Walnuts”, “The Pecan and Other Hickories”, “The Almond”, “Pistachios, Pine Nuts, Acorns and Chinquapins”, “Pollination of Nut Groves”, “Planning, Planting, and Pruning”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
