Ah, yeah, the Foxfire books are good. I've always enjoyed reading them.

If you have a library nearby that keeps old books, look for _Two Little
Savages_ by Ernest Thompson Seton (1911). It was my dad's favorite when he
was a boy and it may have been the most popular book for boys before 1925 or
so. I loved it when I was a boy, too. It contains a wealth of old woodlore,
including making "Indian style" leather by tanning with mashed, cooked
brains and liver...oh, well, you'd have to read it for yourself.
That is available from Project Gutenberg -

along with many other authors and titles.

Excellent. I checked our library catalog (still online for the Rogue
Community College) and they didn't have copies available. I'll check
'er out.
