Filled with lovely pictures of maple groves, sugaring shacks, the sugaring process and maple foods, this book begins with the Native American's discovery of maple sap, the transition from early tapping to modern machinery, and the history of both Canadian and New England sugaring and sugar shacks. There are instructions for tapping back yard maple trees, and the maple flavor wheel, used in the industry for evaluating syrup, is explained. The way I rate books like this is to ask myself if someone, who knows nothing about the subject before, would be well-informed after reading just that book.… (más)
Interesting guide to parks and conservation areas near to Toronto where you can go hiking, birdwatching, canoeing, and engage in other outdoor activities. Informative and enjoyable to read.
A good general overview on the history, practices, uses, and culture surrounding maple syrup production. The beautiful pictures make the experience of reading the book almost as tangible as a visit to a production site. Reading level suitable for all ages.
