I have read through volumes 1-6 and will eventually have all 12. It is a great way to see how things used to be done before electricity. My girls even like to look through them.

My Dad has most of the series, not sure if he has all 12 or not. I remember flipping through them as a kid. I don't remember if it was in one volume or two, but the sections I like reading the most were about faith healers and bootleggers. Some of the natural remedy parts are interesting, too.

At my highschool in Iowa (late 90's) they had the set tucked away in the back corner and I remember the librarian commenting that I was the first one to check the books out in 15 or so years.
I have been slowly buying the books when I see them as they hold great knowledge |

My hippie step dad had the whole set. I used to read through them a lot. I need to order the set.

I have the first six volumes and hope to get the rest soon. Vol. 1 has some good topics, such as: how to make moonshine how to slaughter a hog how to cure and smoke a hog how to build a log cabin how to build a chimney quilt making soap making how to preserve fruit and vegetables how to make a chair etc. Great information.

I bought some of those for my dad as presents, not sure what happened to them. Probably worth buying if only to toss in the attic just in case
