Description
Filled with recipes and how-tos for everything from catching and skinning a rabbit to preparing homemade skin and hair beautifiers, apple cream pie, and the world?s best head cheese (start by scrubbing the head of the pig until it is pink and clean), Little Heathens portrays a world of hardship and hard work tempered by simple rewards. Recounted in a luminous narrative filled with tenderness and humor, Kalish?s memoir of her childhood shows how the right stuff can make even the bleakest of times seem like ?quite a romp.?
