"How to survive TEOTWAWKI"--The Book

I am half way through and can already tell that this is bound to become of the more useful books of its kind.
Written in a straight forward, no-nonsense style, it deals (just enough) with the most important issues one might face and serves them up in a manual type format that doesn't make your eyes glaze over.

Has anyone read it?
What do you think about it, factoring in your own experience?

I have not read it......But I am living it......I read Jim Rawles blog every night. I endorse the lifestyle he advocates, I feel it is healthy, wholesome, and very satisfying to live a rural self sufficiency lifestyle. Would be nice if at appealed to more ladies.

Jim Rawles his Blog is: www.SurvivalBlog.com

The author is James Wesley, Rawles.
He also wrote "Patriots" which made me actually start doing something about preparedness instead of just thinking about it.

Sourdough, I also read his blog every day and think there's a lot of wisdom and common sense to what he says. What adds to his credibility is that he also lives it.

Thanks for the suggestion, I just bought copy tonight.

Patriots is a good book although i do find flaws in it (as in his wasting a precious commodity, ammo) and it is a bit preachy. Another really good book to read is "One Second After", this is the other side of the coin as far as surviving ...... unprepared.
I just picked up his new book, a lot of good stuff in it.
In but books they are out in the country, with very little urban survival.

I was fortunate enough to be lent a copy of "One Second After " (I will return shortly :) ) and found it fascinating. You mentioned he had a new book, can you tell me its title? If it is half as good as the other, it will be a worthwhile read. Thanks

Yeah, he did get a little preachy in Patriots but not enough to obscure the benefits of everything else he was talking about.
He won't get the Pulitzer prize for writing either but he deserves a lot of credit for serving up an amazing amount of useful info in a way that won't bore people to death. The plot, while over the top, still seemed plausible.

I am already re-reading the second book. So much to absorb.

The title is actually the title of this thread:
"How to survive TEOTWAWKI"

The book is terrific, IMHO.

Thank you, will check it out

Just finished reading it. Packed with good information, some that I hope I never have to use. Once I started reading, I could hardly put it down. I plan to buy a couple of copies for friends.
