Synopsis
First 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. Volume three of this series covers animal care, banjos and dulcimers, wild plant foods, butter churns, ginseng and more.

    I made varying offers that I thought was fair for different items similar to this one, this seller had one of preferred choices because it was the correct color. Some sellers never responded, and others refused to make a deal on their item, however this seller did. The guys are awesome, they responded quickly to my offer and we made a deal, in the end I received the item that I really wanted & they hopefully sold an item they wanted gone. The item arrived in one day with UPS, 😊 thanks.

  • FOXFIRE BOOK SERIES

    THESE BOOKS BRING BACK A PIECE OF HISTORY OF HOW THE MOUNTAIN PEOPLE LIVED AND SURVIVED.A PIECE OF OUR HISTORY SOON TO BE LOST. ALSO LESSONS ON HOW TO LIVE OFF THE GRID. MANY MAY BE INTERESTED IN THIS PAST WISDOM. I PURCHASED THESE BOOKS IN THE 70'S AND NEVER FORGOT THE KNOWLEDGE CONTAINED IN THEM. I WAS EXCITED O SEE I COULD STILL GET THE ORGINALS. I RECOMMEND THEM HIGHLY!

  • Handy to have.

    It's a great store of knowledge. It's how things were done by pioneers and their children and grandchildren, how things were done before electricity, which we might want to brush up on.
