Self Sufficiency Books On-line

[MorningSong]

Just look at this guy's online library list:

http://www.transitiontowns.org.nz/node/1514

All are on scribd and downloadable!

[MorningSong]

This looks like an interesting place to download books:

http://www.librum.us/

It also has 11 volumes of the Fox Fire Books!

[Fredkc]

Here is a place where you can download all kinds of military manuals.

While I doubt many here will need to learn how to drive a tank,
or do field maintenance on shoulder-fired rockets, there are some great things there.
Army, Air Force Survival Manuals, for instance.
Basics on keeping dry and warm, Building quick shelters,
identifying edible, and poisonous plants, and insects, etc:

Caution, some can be quite large.

Here's something interesting:

"Peak Oil Prep: Prepare for Peak Oil, Climate Change and Economic Collapse"

Love this thread, I have been picking up do it yourself books at thrift shops, soapmaking, how to build stuff, preserve foods etc. but these downloads are a great free source of knowledge.
Thanks!

Neat. I just read a book about building stone walls. One of these days when I'm retired, I'm going to give it a try.

I read the part in Vol. 5 about longrifles. I know some of those guys (geez, I'm old).
