Publisher's Synopsis

Here is a comprehensive guide to learning some valuable and age-old techniques to simplify your life and get back to basics. It's a book of stone-age skills perfectly suited to the modern megalopolis or the concrete jungle. It shows you how to make pottery from the clay of the earth, how to make baskets from gourds and plant weavings, how to make clothing from plants and animals, and how to brew pine needle tea for your full daily dose of vitamins B and C. With easy-to-obtain natural resources (the only resources your great-great-great grandparents had) you can make the strongest glue, the richest dyes and the most soulful music. The skills and ideas in this unique book will not only have you creating unique objects in an age-old manner but will also restore to you a sense of self-fulfilment and self-worth.
