The survivor 477pg.
"I'm not interested in hobbiests or nostalgia buffs. I'm aiming my material at the strong-minded individualist, the only type who can, and should, survive."In the author's own words: "The Survivor is the first publication preparing its readers to the total collapse of our economy and social system. The Survivor is not an alarmist publication, nor does it give false hope to those who believe they can ride out the coming calamities through 'wise investing.' Instead, The Survivor shows you how our great-grandparents provided for their own needs and for those of their neighbors. With The Survivor you can, without buying commercial 'survival' foods and products protect your home, feed your family and be of such value to your neighbors that they will defend you rather than loot you."The series consists mostly of old public domain articles which Mr. Saxon felt would be of interest to those who wish to live in various degrees of independence. All of the included projects revolve around using a minimum of time, effort, and money to make something which is built to last. Reading these articles quickly makes one realize that in general, the old ways are still best. Interspersed throughout the series are essays on various topics of survival penned by Mr. Saxon. They are always stimulating and enjoyable to read. His intelligent and mostly level-headed attitude towards things is a far cry from the crazed-paranoiac rantings those who know nothing of survivalism may expect. It is hardly a wonder he was printed amongst the likes of Mel Tappan. The PMJB may be all fun and games, but the Survivor series contains the vital information needed to survive. These books will teach you how to grow food, purify water, harvest natural energy, save money, live healthy, and much, MUCH more. They are must-haves for any survivalist or self-reliant person. (His PMJB series are must-haves for collectors of unusual books.) After all, who better to compile this information than the man who invented the word "Survivalist?

If you are in the market for some TRULY subversive information, go for the Survivor. After all, what can be more subversive than refusing to be dependent on the system?
