adapt them for a better life in the twenty-first century need look no
further than this eminently useful, full-color guide. Countless readers
have turned to Back to Basics for inspiration and instruction,
escaping to an era before power saws and fast food restaurants and
rediscovering the pleasures and challenges of a healthier, greener, and
more self-sufficient lifestyle.
Now newly updated, the hundreds of projects, step-by-step sequences, photographs, charts, and illustrations in Back to Basics
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 may be the most thorough
book on voluntary simplicity available. 2,000 color photos; 200 b/w
illustrations.
