TOM BROWN'S FIELD GUIDE TO
CITY AND SUBURBAN SURVIVAL by Tom Brown Jnr. 1984 / 258 pages.
This is the third handbook in the
acclaimed series by the director of the world-famous
Tracking, Nature and Wilderness Survival School. Today
most Americans live in the city or suburbs - a safe,
comfortable life, at least on the surface. Few of us
realize how close we are to the elemental struggle for
survival, until disaster strikes. Yet it is possible to
be prepared. In this uniquely practical handbook by
today's most renowned survival expert, you will gain the
specific skills and detailed knowledge you need to
protect yourself and those you love in almost any
emergency. 'Alternative heat and light sources,
preventing and coping with electrical failure, automobile
survival techniques, protecting your home from intruders,
unconventional food sources for the city dweller,
surviving earthquakes and floods and guarding against
urban crime.'
