Very practical, useful book on surviving hard times. Might make a good gift for somebody who&#8217;s just coming to grips with the current reality and doesn&#8217;t have as much preparedness experience as some of us do. OTOH, it could also be a good info-booster for even a more prepared type. The fact that it features a multi-page interview with yours truly is a small bonus. <\/p>\n<p>If you buy a copy via the Amazon link above, I get a commission, but otherwise, NFI in the book. Parfrey was one of the publishers who picked up selected Loompanics authors when Mike Hoy closed his late, great, outrageous publishing enterprise. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paladin-press.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Paladin Press<\/a> (those nice people) got me. Parfrey grabbed Jim Hogshire, among others. Lifesavers, those brave publishers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Week or two ago, somebody asked me if I had any copies of my books for sale. I had to say no.
