Had to look twice at the title JJ. That was " Far Out" seeing the Earth from the surface of the Moon! I got a hold of one of the later copies and thought it was really something as a teenager... it was a bit of a stretch ordering from it at the time but a great reference. Out of the counter culture at the time self reliance became fashionable again.

Backwoods was a nice publication a little more focused.

Survival /Self Reliance magazine was a good one.

Foxfire is about the neighbors in my old neighborhood. You can still go to the Foxfire center in Mountain City, Ga although it's location moved about ten years ago. There were still a few of the folks around and the locals in general took great pride in the traditional ways...the back story of the teacher who started it is seedy and tragic, he may still be in jail, but others took the reins and moved the project forward. They started growing cane in the area again although it was for energy some still makes it to the old rock syrup apparatuses.

Horace Kephart's " Camping and Woodcraft" is a veritable encyclopedia, cook book and reference for independent living in the wilds.
