This may be someone in the thread already, but couldn't find it.
This would be useful for all the new folk that have joined us recently and are looking for advice. I would urge you to source a paper copy though.

Have a copy too, older (10th edition) but still an excellent resource.

I'm curious to know who here has the oldest edition?! Mine is the 10th also

What i find strange is the copyright date. Mine is 2008, that's about when i bought it, ordered from amerzit it think.

How did they get from the 10th edition in '08 to the 50th edition in '23?

I thought the colors on the cover change with each edition. Don't know if thats accurate.

It's the 50th anniversary edition.

So they stopped numbering editions consecutively... and switched to? The lady's birthday? Death day?

TBH, I saved it. It seems familiar, but I have no idea what I have. There are CD's, DVD/s, Flash drives, actual books, and I just moved a bunch of Google drive stuff to a flash drive

My file system SUCKS.

However, THANK YOU for information!!!!!

Just for information the YouTube channel fouch family off grid features Carla Emery's daughter. They left the public eye now so to speak but it is a good family friendly experience. It was our inspiration to move off grid.
