ISO: Old-Fashioned (but not old) Cookbooks?

Misc.
Hello everyone!
I'm looking for some recipe books that ...

1. Are full of old-fashioned recipes (modern books - I have *lots* of old books). Preferably using as few mixes/processed foods as possible. :)

2. Have game recipes or meat preserving recipes.

3. Have recipes for basic things most people would buy but that can be made from scratch, like, say, saltine crackers, vanilla wafers, and suchlike.

I've recently purchased a few "old-fashioned/country" cookbooks (one that springs to mind is Storey's "500 Treasured Country Recipes"), and I've been disappointed in all of them. Haricots Verts with Prosciutto is not country food in my book! :) If anyone has any good recommendations, please throw them my way, and thank you all in advance!
