•GUIDE TO APPALACHIAN FOLK HEALING• paperback book

DESCRIPTION:

This book draws from the old Pennsylvania Dutch and German healing practices that helped shape Appalachian folk healing. Richards puts these remedies in context, with practical advice for modern-day “backwoods” healers. The first part contains spells and charms for healing illnesses of all sorts. The second part includes folk remedies using ingredients like sulfuric acid, gunpowder, or other substances for swelling, headache, etc. These remedies are presented here for historic interest, to help better understand how folk medicine evolved in America. It is Richards' hope that reintroducing this work will reestablish its position as a useful tool in the library of every witch or country healer. (6" x 8")
