… Poor Man’s Foxfire series - Vol 1-6 …Affairs of Plain Living, Eliot Wigginton, editor
A tremendous book series published since 1969 about rural Appalachian skills such as making moon shine, building a cabin, smoking meat, handling snakes, planting by signs and a whole bunch of useful stuff. These are from microfiche files and I have the first six books on CD ROMS now ready to ship…For subscribers the cost for the next 30-days will be only $4.95 shipping included…you would expect to pay $10 each for used copies on eBay plus postage.
Here’s a sampling of the information you’ll find here:
…hog dressing, log cabin building, mountain crafts and foods, planting by the signs, snake lore, hunting tales, faith healing, moonshining, and other affairs of plain living". Foxfire 2 is about, "ghost stories, spring wild plant foods, spinning and weaving, midwifing, burial customs, corn shuckin's, wagon making and more affairs of plain living". Foxfire 4 (don't have #3) is about "fiddle making, springhouses, horse trading, sassafras tea, berry buckets, gardening, and further affairs of plain living". Foxfire 5 is about "ironmaking, blacksmithing, flintlock rifles, bear hunting, and other affairs of plain living". Foxfire 6 is about "shoemaking, 100 toys and games, gourd banjos and song bows, wooden locks, a water-powered sawmill, and other affairs of just plain living".
These books are a must see and read.
I’m also including three bonus PDFs
Book of the New Alchemists
Village Technology Handbook
Hydroponics Guide
These bonus books provide additional resources from drilling a well to growing stuff indoors…they make a nice compliment to the FoxFire series. If you wish to PayPal account to send us $4.95-use our PayPal address of:
