Little Book of Building Fires

Nothing beats the companionable crackle of an open fire, but how many of us actually know how to build one? The Little Book of Building Fires is a richly illustrated pocket guide to sourcing, seasoning and storing firewood, choosing kindling and tinder, as well as building and lighting the perfect fire, indoors and out. Sally Coulthard, the author of Shed Chic and Gardenalia blends practicality with personal experience, accompanied by her lovely illustrations, encouraging us to get back in touch with our ancient firemaking instincts - from campfires to woodburners, bonfires to open hearths.
