The literal translation of the Norwegian title is "herring and potatoes". These were the traditional basic foods in Sogn og Fordane, the county well known for fjords and glaciers. This book is about the daily life of the local population and economy around the twentieth century. Most of the illustrations are from the local archive, Fylkesarkivet i Sogn og Fordane in Leikanger.
