Killer Book, a MUST HAVE for the Homemaker/Homesteader!, 2 Nov 2006
By A. Turpen "militant libertarian" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Solar Food Dryer: How to Make and Use Your Own Low-Cost, High-Performance, Sun-Powered Food Dehydrator (Paperback)
If you do any kind of homemaking, preserving, growing of your own food, etc., then you absolutely need to get this book! This will give you low-cost and realistic way to preserve your food naturally and in a way that keeps it tasting great! The step-by-step instructions for building the author's food dryer are top-notch and easy to follow, even for the non-mechanically inclined.
My only wish is that the author had included plans for the other food dryers mentioned, though a quick Google will supply this, so it's not really necessary.

A very worthwhile book, 29 July 2006
By Edward Esch - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Solar Food Dryer: How to Make and Use Your Own Low-Cost, High-Performance, Sun-Powered Food Dehydrator (Paperback)
Fodor has written a book to be used, not simply read. The first part deals with the theory and physical facts of solar drying, while the second tells how to make a dryer. Next comes a section on preparing food to dry, followed by a brief group of recipes and, finally, some very handy appendices. Fodor writes clearly and handles details well.

The Solar Food Dryer: How to make and Use You Own Low-Cost, High Performance, Sun-Powered Food Dehydrator, 20 Aug 2006
By Miranda D. Sieh "PrincessPetal" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Solar Food Dryer: How to Make and Use Your Own Low-Cost, High-Performance, Sun-Powered Food Dehydrator (Paperback)
This book is very informational about the food dryer design promoted in the book. I wish it had a little more information about the pros and cons of other solar dryer designs.
