I have my grampa's handiman books from the 60s-70s. AND do not forget the cookbooks and sewing books!!! My favorite recipes come from my mom and grama as well as several creators who specialize in period cooking. My favorite sewing book is one my mom used in highschool (50s) because it teaches how to make your own patterns, take in clothes, repair clothes and make the most important~~UNDERWEAR and BRAS

@breesechick 9 месяцев назад

Another strategy is having barriers like raised beds in your front yard or a pond where you can slow the enemy down if they were to tear through your yard to get to your house. Another thing is every wall that you see could be a place where the enemy is hiding. Another thing is an obstacle that is not guarded is no obstacle at all. Such as a barbed wire fence, chain link fence, gate excetera somebody could eventually work their way through if it's not guarded.

I have nearly the same library! I love the Foxfire books. The entire library of the Hesperian foundation is worth getting both physical and digital. All third-world solutions. Keep it up JR.

@SgtSkrog 9 месяцев назад

I have many of the books you have listed. But I also expanded to "all" topics of potential value. Including audiobooks, movies, entertainment, etc. I also have an EMP-protected tablet in the go bag loaded with Kindle copies. Thousands of items were downloaded and burned to media over the past few years. I will be known as the warlord librarian 🙂 I was thinking about no more Internet as the reason for doing this. Knowledge is and always will be power.

@heygetoffmylawn1572 9 месяцев назад

Excellent content, as usual, JR. I love the resource guides you bring to light if and when the grid and internet go down. I suggest buying multiples in these type books, if possible. They will work well as barter items for family, friends and neighbors who may have not thought ahead of such scenarios. The unprepared will need this as well.

@patriciatinkey2677 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for replying to this person's very good question, JR! I wrote down your answer. I already have that medical book for when no Doctor is coming, but I'll take pains to get the other 2, & I'd be interested in one that you would author, since I like your style of communicating!

@wbaisjeff 9 месяцев назад

Unfortunately there isn’t a book that covers everything. I would like to find books on topics like how to build a windmill for a well, how the cowboys made lasso’s and rope, how to create a wench with logs and rope, how to make a grape and oil press and how to process wheat and grain into flower. Seems like a lot but it makes you wonder how our fore fathers managed without a 7-11 or Home Depot

@user-yn9gw7iy9p 9 месяцев назад

@dragonslayer7587 9 месяцев назад

I'm thinking the 3 most important books to have are: An all around medical book like Dr Alton & Nurse Amy wrote. Foraging for both edible plants and mushrooms, and Building & building repair. Hopefully it would include Solar installation, plumbing repair, or building your own septic etc. Those are my top three. I don't see myself being able to take more than that with me, and I know I need them!

Another great resource is the NWS Skywarn weather training. There are classes in every state and it’s free! You get reference manuals as well as an identification card that is good for a couple years where the NWS may contact you to verify weather in your area.

@palominogirl2732 9 месяцев назад

A good list - but I would add 'LIGHTS ON' by Jeffrey Yago. When it all boils down, if you have a way to power things, your in pretty good shape. This book is excellent! He also has written a few others that I intend to read. Also, not quite in the same vein, but about how fragile our grid is, is a book by Ted Koppel "LIGHTS OUT", excellent read on why our grid is vulnerable, would take a long time to fix (years), and how some people are preparing, I remember he talks to Mormons (the original preppers), and a wealthy man with a ranch in....I think Montana, who is very well prepared, and has his own community of ranch hands. I haven't read it in years, but should read it again. Very enlightening. If you read this and aren't a bit frightened/motivated, well.....
