Here at Storey, we stand by our mission to publish practical information that encourages personal independence in harmony with the environment. Our Spring 2014 list is sure to inspire your audience to explore hands-on projects, learn new skills, and create something to be proud of. In our 30 years of book publishing, we've discovered that some of the best new ideas are rooted in time-tested ways from the past. Our Spring 2014 list offers fresh, creative takes on a variety of traditional activities, such as growing and preparing food, sewing, knitting, brewing beer, building, raising animals, and more. We invite you to rediscover the possibilities to be found in open-fire cooking, take a new approach to preserving food, and experience the joy of learning dozens of other age-old skills and applying them to contemporary life. These pleasures resonate with readers of all generations.
