Cross-Current Pub., 2002

Packed full of information - a valued addition to any preparedness library
This is a very insightful and well constructed book. There is a TON of information. It does lean heavily on food storage, dedicating nearly 2/3 of its 315 pages to various facets of food (production, preservation, storage). The remaining 100+ pages discuss things ...

Where There Is No Doctor: A Village Health Care Handbook
Jane Maxwell, Carol Thuman, ...

Hesperian Foundation, 1992

Where There Is No Doctor: A Village Health Care Handbook
This book was designed for primitive health care. It isn't set up to turn the layman into a surgeon. For what it is; it does an excellent job. A huge block of it has little use here in the states, but there is at least one good tip on every page. Once you move ...

The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the ...

Grove Press, 2006

The Long Emergency
An excellent argument that we are at or approaching the peak oil production plateau, and speculates on the drastic future we may expect. Well done. Provokes a lot of thought about how one should adapt to eventually intolerable circumstances!

When All Hell Breaks Loose

Black Flies: A Novel
Shannon Burke

Soft Skull Press, 2008

who saves the medics?
Though depicted as a novel, Black Flies is concise enough for a perfect novella. Or, as it expounds upon the experiences of a paramedic in Harlem, it is also appropriate to label the work as a series of vignettes (albeit with a clear storyline). Whatever its ...

Tao Le, Vikas Bhushan
