Can you help me find this book?

I found this posted on "A Taste of Home" when I was googling 'depression era' recipes:

When DH was in the army (a long time ago) I would use the post library. I checked out a book & if I remember correctly, the name of a book was 'Keeping the Wolf from the Door'. It was about incredibly basic survival. One recipe was to remove the hardware off a leather suitcase or brief case & boil the leather to try & make Calf's Foot Jelly. There was a chapter for what to do 'when the jerry's bombed out your kitchen'. Tips on burying food in the ground if you didn't have a root cellar or to put things in a creek to keep them cool. Along w/tips on unraveling sweaters & knitting new ones. I read it several decades ago but it was an interesting book, I'd assume written by an English author (from what I remember because of the WWII references).

So now I am trying to find the book she was talking about. I can not find a book with that title. Do any of you know what the actual title may be? Thanks in advance

 

That certainly sounds like the right book. Thank you very much!

Now, has anyone read that book?

From the description on TOH, I thought it sounded like a good "survival" book. But, from what the link tells me, it is more of a "foodie" type of book.

 

Great, please let me know what you think of it.
