Publisher Description:

The story of biltong is about a type of spiced, dried meat produced in South Africa. The book provides a simple introduction to the product, including what it is, some details of its history in South Africa, and how it is made. It also describes why people made biltong in the past and how they did it, and provides a step-by-step guide to making your own biltong.

This book is one of the seven books in the Made in South Africa series, by ex-school teacher turned non-fiction author Lynn Barnes. The books are aimed at younger readers and are divided into short chapters with full-colour photos and illustrations. The language is clear and accessible for both first- and second-language learners. A word help section explains more difficult terms that are relevant to the particular topic. These informative books provide excellent resource material for school projects and assignments. They are ideal for schools, libraries, home-schooling and children with enquiring minds.

  • The story of rooibos tea
  • The story of shweshwe
  • The story of biltong
