## Description

Essential survival advice from a former U.S. Army Intelligence Corps Officer and the world’s preeminent expert in preparedness. For years, James Wesley, Rawles has lived a self-sufficient lifestyle along with his family on a property surrounded by National Forest. In his earlier bestselling nonfiction book, How to Survive the End of the World as We Know It , Rawles outlined the foundations for survivalist living. Now, he details the tools needed to survive anything from a short-term disruption to a long-term, grid-down scenario. Here, Rawles covers tools for every aspect of self sufficient living, including: • Food preservation and cooking • Welding and blacksmithing • Timber, firewood, and lumber • Firefighting • Archery and less-than-lethal defense tools • And more... Field-tested and comprehensive, Tools for Survival is a must-have reference for anyone who wants to know how to prepare for the worst.

Review: Skill Building is Powerful Knowledge - I own James Wesley Rawles's other book "How To Survive The End Of The World As We Know It" as well, and if you're just beginning your disaster preparations or if you want to refine your organization that is a better book as it covers a wide range of topics. "Tools For Survival" is a technical book in that it discusses in detail the physical tools one should keep on hand, how to care for those tools, how to shop for them so you're getting the best value for your money, and the importance of building your skill set to use these tools. He discusses everyday tools for woodworking, welding, building fences, to weapons such as knives, guns, crossbows, and even speaks of do-it-yourself at home dentistry. It is dry reading, but nonetheless an excellent resource to keep on hand for many reasons. The most important lesson learned from this book is that for centuries people have lived without electricity, and their tools, while crude, still reflect understanding and intelligence, and many of those tools will be just as vital should the grid go down when a disaster strikes.
Review: Excellent book. Goes step by step - Excellent book. Goes step by step, topic by topic as to the various items you would need ina grid down scenario. Strange, many of the items lists were everyday tools of say our grandparents. For example, a hand crank drill or a butter churn. Just think what would the Amish use to do the job (as they are 'supposedly' not allowed to use electricity. And then, practice with it. Don't just put it in a box labeled "when power goes out". Use it, be familiR with it. Rawles is an excellent author and I would encourage anyone to look at his other books as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Book - Informative and timely
*by C***. on February 22, 2015*

Updated version of Mel Tappan's 'Survival Guns' that was published more years ago than I want to admit to. Impressed that Mr. Rawles gave credit to Mr. Tappan and a couple other authors, you don't see this integrity in many authors these days. Have several other books written by Mr. Rawles and this one is a real keeper (not that his other books were not educational - although fiction - or are they?) but this particular book gives direct step by step advise from hands on experience if you should need it. For those who may already have these skills at one level or another, it provides points to ponder and sound reminders to keep you safe. Worth not only your money, but your time to read it and you must read it cover to cover in order to gain the knowledge and thought process that is contained in the book.
