An engaging introduction to traditional knowledge and forgotten wisdom.

Lost Wisdom is a celebration of the time-honoured wisdom upon which we all once relied. It draws on folklore, tradition and superstition, and is packed with amusing anecdotes and historical extracts which illuminate the beliefs and knowledge of our ancestors. It brings to life the wisdom and practical skills that helped generation after generation, only becoming lost with the advent of mechanization and the technological age.
Lost Wisdom is a beautiful book that will once more immerse you in the pleasures of the past.
