Review: The Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency Used by the Mormon Pioneers

<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1599555107/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=prepper-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373&amp;creativeASIN=1599555107"><img src="http://ws.assoc-amazon.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ASIN=1599555107&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=prepper-20&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822" alt="" align="right" border="0" /></a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1599555107&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373" alt="" width="1" height="1" align="right" border="0" />Walking along the book aisle in Costco the other day, I came to a rather sudden stop as a specific books caught my eye. With a name like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1599555107/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=prepper-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373&amp;creativeASIN=1599555107">The Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency Used by the Mormon Pioneers</a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1599555107&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" />, can you blame me?  This was obviously a book stocked for a local audience, so I hope our non-Utah readers can find a copy.  Author <a title="Caleb Warnock's blog" href="http://calebwarnock.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Caleb Warnock</a> is a local (Alpine, Utah) writer, year-round gardener, and teacher of "Forgotten Skills" classes.  It also helped when I noticed one of the people listed in the special thanks section is a friend of mine, and <a title="Eric James Stone" href="http://www.ericjamesstone.com/" target="_blank">local sci-fi author</a> (how's that for a tight-knit Utah Valley).
