Publisher's Synopsis

Essential survival advice from a former U.S. Army Intelligence Corps Officer and the world's preeminent expert in preparedness.

For years, James Wesley, Rawles has lived a self-sufficient lifestyle along with his family on a property surrounded by National Forest. In his earlier bestselling nonfiction book, How to Survive the End of the World as We Know It, Rawles outlined the foundations for survivalist living. Now, he details the tools needed to survive anything from a short-term disruption to a long-term, grid-down scenario.

Here, Rawles covers tools for every aspect of self sufficient living, including:

 Food preservation and cooking
 Welding and blacksmithing
 Timber, firewood, and lumber
 Firefighting
 Archery and less-than-lethal defense tools
 And more...

Field-tested and comprehensive, Tools for Survival is a must-have reference for anyone who wants to know how to prepare for the worst.

Plume

Plume was founded in 1970 as the trade paperback imprint of New American Library. In its early history, Plume focused primarily on nonfiction titles, publishing approximately 35 titles per year.

The 1980?s saw Plume make its mark with a number of major bestsellers, including Toni Morrison?s Tar Baby, Erica Jong?s Fanny, Russell Baker?s Growing Up, and Gloria Steinem?s Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, among others.
