Not recommended. Some good recipes and advice but it's very dated. It talks, for example, about the Microdome, which was a microwave canning system that was discontinued after a few years because it wasn't safe. There are better books.

I really like the pressure canning chart, and she had a nice little canning history introduction.

This is an excellent canning and preserving primer. Technique descriptions could have been more detailed or more clearly written as a reference book rather than from the perspective of the author. All in all a good beginners book with lots of pictures.
