Organized by general topic including animals, cooking, crafts, gardening, health and well-being, and home, it is further broken down to cover dozens of specifics from Building Chicken Coops to Making Cheese, Butter, and Yogurt to Improving Your Soil to Restoring Hardwood Floors. Nearly 1,000 black-and-white illustrations and photographs run throughout and fascinating projects and trusted advice crowd every page.
