About this product

Product Information

Anyone who wants to learn basic living skills--the kind employed by our forefathers--need look no further than this eminently useful, full-color guide. Dye your own wool, raise chickens, weave a rug, make jam and cheese, and much, much more! With hundreds of projects, step-by-step sequences, photographs, charts, and illustrations, The Back to Basics Handbook will help you dye your own wool with plant pigments, graft trees, raise chickens, craft a hutch table with hand tools, and make treats such as blueberry peach jam and cheddar cheese. The truly ambitious will find instructions on how to build a log cabin or an adobe brick homestead. More than just practical advice, this is also a book for dreamers--even if you live in a city apartment you will find your imagination sparked, and there's no reason why you can't, for example, make a loom and weave a rag rug. Complete with tips for old-fashioned fun (square dancing calls, homemade toys, and kayaking tips), this is the ultimate concise guide to voluntary simplicity.

  • Excellent book! Worth way more than the price!

    I am loving this book! I bought it because our family is trying to find more ways to live off the land and to conserve. This book gives you step-by-step instructions on many of the "old" ways of life. I can't wait to put it all to use when I harvest and replant next year.

  • Back to Basic

    Awesome
