The Reader's Digest hardcover book "Back to Basics" has this information and so much more, including hows to for homemade wells, outhouses, heating stoves, gardening, animal husbandry, fish ponds, hunting-slaughtering-dressing kill, canning and dehydrating, even tanning hides. There's lots more that I can't even list here. I wouldn't be without my copy, ever. Check one out from your local large library so you can decide if you want to buy one, and if you buy one, get it cheaper secondhand at a large thrift store or online.
