  Joshua Dixon's essay, "A Beauty Worth Admiring," is a deeply personal narrative recounting his journey of survival, resilience, and self-discovery following a traumatic pit bull attack that left him with severe injuries at the age of eight. He describes the intense physical and emotional pain he endured during his recovery, including multiple surgeries and the challenges of navigating a world that often treated him with cruelty due to his appearance. 
  Despite these hardships, Joshua finds solace and strength in his family, especially his mother, who supported him unwaveringly. He shares how his passion for art and photography became a therapeutic outlet, allowing him to express the pain he couldn’t articulate with words and ultimately helping him reclaim his identity and confidence. 
  Joshua also reflects on the racism and ableism he encountered throughout his life, particularly during his time in school. He describes how these experiences, along with the ongoing struggle with body dysmorphia and mental health challenges, have shaped his commitment to promoting wellness and kindness through his platform, Admire Wear. The essay highlights his growth from a victim to a survivor who uses his story and art to inspire and uplift others.

  A long-treasured but forgotten classic of folk healing, with an introduction and commentary by the author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil.Ossman & Steel’s Guide to Health or Household Instructor (its original title) is a collection of spells, remedies, and charms. The book draws from the old Pennsylvania Dutch and German powwow healing practices that in turn helped shape Appalachian folk healing, conjure, rootwork, and many folk healing traditions in America. Jake Richards, author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil, puts these remedies in context, with practical advice for modern-day “backwoods” healers interested to use them today. The first part contains spells and charms for healing wounds, styes, broken bones, maladies, and illnesses of all sorts. The second part includes other folk remedies using ingredients based on sympathetic reasoning, including sulfuric acid, gunpowder, or other substances for swelling, toothache, headache, and so on. These remedies are presented here for historic interest, to help better understand how folk medicine evolved in America. It is Jake Richard’s hope that reintroducing this work will reestablish its position as a useful household helper in the library of every witch or country healer.
