SynopsisFirst published in 1972, The Foxfire Book was a surprise bestseller that brought Appalachia's philosophy of simple living to hundreds of thousands of readers. Whether you wanted to hunt game, bake the old-fashioned way, or learn the art of successful moonshining, The Foxfire Museum and Heritage Center had a contact who could teach you how with clear, step-by-step instructions. This eleventh volume celebrates the rituals and recipes of the Appalachian homeplace, including a one-hundred page section on herbal remedies, and segments about planting and growing a garden, preserving and pickling, smoking and salting, honey making, beekeeping, and fishing, as well as hundreds of the kind of spritied firsthand narrative accounts from Appalachian community members that exemplify the Foxfire style. Much more than "how-to" books, the Foxfire series is a publishing phenomenon and a way of life, teaching creative self-sufficiency, the art of natural remedies, home crafts, and other country folkways, fascinating to everyone interested in rediscovering the virtues of simple life.

Foxfire books
The whole series of Foxfire books are really useful for living off the grid and from the land, I've always enjoyed these books for the information and skills that are fading fast and soon will be something our grandparents talked about. Primitive living skills for homesteading and survival, a link to the past and times long gone but may be around the corner in the current state of the world. I highly recommend the books to gardeners, farmers, homesteaders, off grid living enthusiasts or people looking to get back to their primitive roots. In a 12 book series all as thick as the old Sears Wishbook catalog absolutely full of valuable and lost arts.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
