    Default Best Survival Books - Opinions

    So I've just started to research on basic survival stuff, and was wondering. Is there one book on survival, that if SHTF, you would want to take with you? Like
    the US Army Survival Manual, etc.

    Any favorites, or good recommended reading for me?

    Take a look at the sticky at the top of the page. Many links that might help you. Everyone is different. I do have a few books for reference. Most of the army manuals are available for download. Many of the ones you might want are restricted.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    That really depends on what shtf means to your minds eye.

    Do you think it's total societal collapse, loosing your job and house, plain wrecks in a remote area, your smart phone has no signal?

    Zombies vampires or red dawn?

    I like the SAS Encyclopedia of survival. I also have a couple of others of the SAS one is my favorite. Lots of good info.

    Just practice. There are lots of things that I haven't even tried and I try to do something new everytime I go camping. Some things don't work well for me and others do.
