The Prepper’s Medical Handbook Paperback – Illustrated, March 24 2020
The basis of adequate prepping is being prepared for both common and dire events that may occur under the worst of all possible circumstances. These circumstances might include the breakdown in normal emergency support services (such as calling 911), the lack of an ability to obtain additional supplies, and the probability that you will not be able to rely on anyone but members of your immediate group or yourself.
Prepping requires forethought with regard to food, water supplies, power, and protection – all areas of significant technical preparation. Self-reliant medical care is no exception.
This book provides the basis of prevention, identification, and long-term management of survivable medical conditions and can be performed with minimal training. It helps you identify sources of materials you will need and should stock-pile, it discusses storage issues, and directs you to sources for more complex procedures that require advanced concepts of field-expedient techniques used by trained medical persons such as surgeons, anesthesiologists, dentists, or midwifes and obstetricians.

Trench Fighting: A 1917 French Army Manual for Hand-to-Hand Combat. Kindle Edition
Formerly published under the title Hand-to-Hand Combat, this 1917 manual has been revised and colorized for clarity’s sake. The Great War was entering its third bloody year, and even the proud and stubborn French command had to concede that old methods weren’t working. To be sure, in a hypothetical situation wherein two infantrymen were rushing at one another across an open battlefield, the soldier with the 20 inch “épée bayonet” fixed on the end of his 51.2 inch Lebel 1886 rifle would appear to have the clear advantage over the German adversary with his shorter Mauser with Seitengewehr bayonet – the Frenchman would simply be able issue his fatal thrust sooner, and so prevail. But there were no such ideal encounters, as men could not engage in bayonet sparring while stumbling through muck and being raked by machine gun fire – not to mention that the enemy had little reason to abandon the safety of his position to engage in hand-to-hand.
