Description

The listing, The Foxfire Book has ended.

I wasn't sure which subcategory to put this in. Hopefully this is right. In the late 1960s, Eliot Wigginton and his students created the magazine Foxfire in an effort to record and preserve the traditional folk culture of the Southern Appalachians. This is the original book compilation of Foxfire material which introduces Aunt Arie and her contemporaries and includes log cabin building, hog dressing, snake lore, mountain crafts and food, and "other affairs of plain living."

Questions & Comments

I forgot to mention there ARE stains on this book as you can see by the picture. it is in acceptable condition. not perfect. but spine is intact. it has the rip by the spine and a tore off little piece at the bottom of the right corner. there is a lot of interesting information.

it looks like maybe it's the first one? I looked it up on the internet and on amazon they have the others numbered but this one isn't. I bought it at a yard sale when I went to Illinois to visit my daughter cause i thought it was great. I just have too much stuff. i think i may regret giving it away later:( good luck
