 A must have for people seeking a simlper life. August 12, 1999
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have checked this book out numerous times from the local library and just had to have a personal copy. It is one of the best books in the field of "simpler living" I have ever read. For those fearing the worst of the "Y2K" or even for those who just enjoy living "off the land" or getting "back to simpler things of life" I highly recommend this book.
I'm old fashioned and love this book! June 24, 1999
I borrowed this book from a friend and became so attached I had to buy a copy for myself. If my home burns down tonight this would be one of the first books I would replace, the first being my Bible. I have put this book to use many times and plan to build a slipform stone house.

This may well be the only book you ever need. June 14, 1999
Back to Basics is the single best resource book I've ever seen. All you need is this book, an axe, a saw, and a few acres of land to build a life. A simple, productive, self sufficient life.
This book is a great overview & foundation to simple living June 2, 1999
This is my favorite book for simple living. I purchased it new in 1981 and proceeded to live by it for the last 18 years. Excellent articles on gardening, canning, food storage, early american hobbies.
