I found this, it is an example of what is in the book. http://www.beautifuliron.com/forge_brakedrum.htm I was trying to get an idea what the book was like myself.
It looks like it is available on http://www.amazon.com/Back-Basics-Reade ... 0895779390
The survivor’s attitude is the most important element of the will to survive. With the proper attitude, almost anything is possible.

If it was published originally more than a few years ago, you might even be able to locate one at a second hand bookstore, or even online.

I got my copy at a garage sale when I was 14 (that was 10 years ago!). My mom had a copy, I loved it. Found mine, and its in my cherished books section :D
