Having a survival book library
On the topic of books and having a library of survival related books:
Books never die

Books are ageless
Books never get mad
Books never talk back
Books never pick a fight
Books never get hungry
Books never complain
Books never get tired
My grandfather passed away in May of 2007. One of the things I received was his book collection. Its more books then a lot of people hope to read in their lifetime. Most of the books are history books – American Civil War, Texas history and Native American History. I’am not at home right now, so I can not give an “exact” list.
One book from my grandfathers collection that I’am reading right now is “The Raven: A Biography of Sam Houston”. The part I’am in is just after Sam Houston defeated Santa Anna at the battle of San Jacinto, and stephen F Austin has died because of some illness.
The book before that was “Caesar: Life of a Colossus” by Adrian Goldsworthy. Through this book I learned that the lust for gold, money and power are timeless. Its amazing what people and governments will do for money. Whether its invading another country to steal its resources, to killing political opponents – the violence that mankind inflicts upon itself never ceases to amaze me.
The book before that was “Return of the Black Death: The World’s Greatest Serial Killer”
A video I put together about books and planning for an outbreak of infectious disease. While looking through my youtube video collection, I realized that I do not have any videos about books besides the plague. So I’am going to have to fix that problem.
Survival Ebooks
There are several things that I like about Survival Ebooks – their portable, backup copies are easy to make, you can print out certain pages to take with you on hiking and camping trips – or even keep them in your car or truck.
If you need some cheat sheets to bring with you on a hiking trip, its easier to bring a couple of pages instead of packing the whole book.
So where do you get Survival Ebooks from, well that’s from SurvivalEbooks.com. You should be able to find just about anything you want from there.
One thing that the members of the survival forum will do, is that they will print out parts of the manuals and put them into a binder. That way they have a physical backup of important data. Be sure to label the outside of the binders so they are easy to find during an emergency.
