Sandra: This book holds allot of information. If your new to storing your garden produce or want to learn more about doing it better this book is for you. Many pages of resources at the back, as well as recipes using your pantry and garden items. Wonderful information on building and/or making your cellar/basement a better storage place for your garden produce. It’s a shelf keeper for me.

Lee:
I'll preface my brief comments that my interest is in root cellar construction, and I bought both this and Julie Fryer's book.
BOTH ARE SUPERB!! You will not go wrong with either of them, and I HIGHLY recommend, if you have some spare change in your pockets, to get both! OK, if I were pressed to recommend only one, I would recommend this one . . . but as soon as I say that, Julie's is excellent, too. The Bubel is an all-around complete root cellaring book that also includes many chapters on construction and everything you will possibly ever need/want to know about root cellaring; the Fryer book is a complete construction book that also includes all aspects of root cellaring. You see what I mean? :) They are both excellent!
Get both. I promise you that you will not regret it!
Happy root cellaring!

Vermont Woman:
The first good thing about this book is that it starts at the beginning - planning what to plant and when as a part of looking ahead to storing your produce. She talks about what foods can be stored and for how long. Later in the book there is a lot of information on specifics temperature and humidity requirements for storing each food type. There is first information on assessing what areas of your home may already be good for natural storage and then information on how you can enhance those areas (unheated basement, stairway to attic, garage, etc.). Next there is a lot of good information on actually building a root cellar. I don't see how anyone could build one without this kind of resource.
Here in Vermont there is a lot of activity around buying or growing good quality food and natural cold storage is a natural extension of this interest. Refrigerators are great - but being to buy or grow bushels of apples and squash and cabbages and keep them crisp into the winter/spring is a challenge that I want to pursue. I highly recommend this book to any one who shares this interest.
