Title: “How to Survive the End of the World as We Know It: Tactics, Techniques, and Technologies for Uncertain Times”
Author: James Wesley Rawles
Rank: 22
Blurb: “It would only take one unthinkable event to disrupt our way of life. If there is a terrorist attack, a global pandemic, or sharp currency devaluation — you may be forced to fend for yourself in ways you’ve never imagined. Where would you get water? How would you communicate with relatives who live in other states? What would you use for fuel?”
Review: “His book was fascinating to a guy like me, who before reading this, hardly ever thought about packing for a nuclear holocaust.”

… you may be forced to fend for yourself in ways you’ve never imagined. Great. So where is my agent?
Where would you get water? We have a very good well, a spring house and several streams. You’re all welcome.
How would you communicate with relatives who live in other states? I don’t communicate with them now, why would I then?
What would you use for fuel? Hot air. I seem to have a limitless supply.
I wonder if he’s related to John Rawles.
That would be all sorts of awesomeness.
I hope the book tells you how to attract the wommin folk in a state of total anarchy. But that might not entertain the audience who is more interested in young boy slave-keeping
@Bruno: They will be attracted to exactly the same things they are attracted to now. Everyone will just be dirtier and die younger.
