I think I have mentioned this before, but with everything going on I think it deserves it's own thread.
Here is the link to buy the book if you are interested; it is not available at your local barnes and nobles.

Here is the description; I think this is on the back cover as well.
Basically, this guy was living in Argentina during their collapse and he saw firsthand what works and what doesn't to survive day to day. Alot of stuff in this book is stuff you have already read elsewhere, but quite a bit of it was interesting. There were some good indicators listed that tell you how far into a collapse you are; some of them you know and others you may not think about, but a surprising number of them are present in the states already. Short book and a good read; his writing style isn't great but it is good to have information from someone that actually experienced a collapse instead of people throwing out info with no real world backing.

My book is a Modern Survival Manual based on first hand experience of the 2001 Economic Collapse in Argentina. In it you will find a variety of subjects that I consider essential if a person wants to be prepared for tougher times: -How to prepare your family, yourself, your home and your vehicle -How to prepare your finances so that you don't suffer what millions in my country went through -How to prepare your supplies for food shortages and power failures -How to correctly fight with a chair, gun, knife, pen or choke with your bare hands if required -Most important, how to reach a good awareness level so that you can avoid having to do all that These are just a few examples of what you will find in this book. It's about Attitude, and being a more capable person and get the politically correct wimp out of your system completely.
