Lost ways refer to knowledge that was widely known among Americans in the 18th century. These skills were passed down from father to son and from mother to daughter even into the 19th century. But then industrialization occurred and many of these hard-earned abilities began to fall into obscurity.

However, if tomorrow you were cut off from electricity, groceries, a smartphone and so forth, that knowledge that our American ancestors had earned would once again be invaluable.

The Lost Ways is a dense book with more than 300 pages and a substantial amount of information. It is also worth noting that this is not a book written by a single author but rather a compilation written by numerous authors with specialized skills that allow for real insight into many of the topics discussed.
