I don't know how much she read or used it, but I'm glad I saved it. There's something special about a book that feels old in your hands and yet still has relevance.Jess PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775984664764629241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786474119988979465.post-37405002298310162562012-03-17T09:31:00.597-04:002012-03-17T09:31:00.597-04:00I've never heard of these books!

I lived very close to one of the pentecostal snake handling churches! <br /><br />Thank you for writing this. I consider myself Eclectic, but I love reading anything I can get my hands on. I will definitely be on the hunt for these books!Dydan Watershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12750149019056855496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786474119988979465.post-55850950057538457432012-03-16T16:17:29.988-04:002012-03-16T16:17:29.988-04:00Obviously I think Foxfire is a great resource.

I adore the history in them...A lot of it is trial and error and takes faith to believe, so the folk medicine suggestions are meant to be taken on advisement :)AmethJerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09575410695782447489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786474119988979465.post-22833925412599895302012-03-16T11:56:41.477-04:002012-03-16T11:56:41.477-04:00I've not thought about the Foxfire Books for y...I've not thought about the Foxfire Books for years! When I was in junior high school, my history/social studies teacher used to read the class excerpts from these books.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14233273627995710806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786474119988979465.post-70089249207329673472012-03-16T11:15:12.749-04:002012-03-16T11:15:12.749-04:00Oh wow!!
