    Question Has anyone read?

    The foxfire books? How many of them are there? I just requested two from the library! They have like 8 volumes, I didn't know there were that many. Are they good reading?

    I think there are 12 in the series and more on various subjects. They reall are great reading. I especially love the interviews they do with poeple about their every day lives & recollections.

    I'm not for sure how many there are, however I do know quite a few. I have never read them, but dh has, when he was younger. We have always intended to get them, just never have!!

    I've read many of them, and like the Tightwad Gazette, they are good to re-read and refer to over and over.

    I have read one or two, and almost got volume 6, I think (the one with all the toys) out last night until I decided I had too many books already.
