In this 294-page guidebook, Appalachian Magazine pulls survival and "living off the land" information from three incredibly reliable sources: The United States Military, our Appalachian ancestors and the American farmer. This illustrated book goes into great detail covering topics ranging from timeless farming and gardening techniques, to how make homemade protection weapons, navigating and weather forecasting, and how to read "the signs" to topics such as trapping and cold weather survival.
