    Books on medicinal herbs, basic plumbing and wiring and anything my spawn might find useful to thrive without 20th century comforts. Anything pertinent to the systems/equipment already in place on my property so they might maintain it. I’ve complied a scrapbook style gardening book with as much info I could find from seed catalogs and online specifically about the seeds in my collection. The info on packets these days is pretty sparse any many are just in little plastic bags. I also include info on the roots that I’ve bought and planted in the forest. Who knew that Comfrey tea is also useful as a fertilizer!

    Oh, and don’t forget the value of novels. Fiction has it’s place in any library. I’m especially fond of historical novels.
