Survival Theory

A Preparedness Guide

By: Jonathan Hollerman

Narrated by: Jim Pelletier

If you're looking for information on how to prepare for a short-term natural disaster, this is not the book for you.

Best-selling author Jonathan Hollerman will present evidence that America as we know it could be destroyed in the near future from the loss of America's electric grid or other societal collapse scenarios. Many preparedness "experts" severely underestimate the threat posed by millions of starving, desperate people and offer dangerous advice because of it.

This preparedness guide will help you develop a plan to escape the deadly rioting and looting, showing you where you can take your family to keep them safe, even if you can't afford a fully-stocked survival retreat. Hollerman's in-depth expertise and recommendations will cover many topics including bug-out bags, SHTF Weapons, tactical gear, survival tools, knives, long-term food storage, livestock, bug-out locations, survival retreat recommendations, and much more.

Great book

I really enjoyed this book. The information is straight forward and validated by the author's training and experience, not to mention the heavy research he did to complete this project.

I highly recommend it to everyone who has concerns about the future of our country and the safety of our families.

My 27 years of federal law enforcement and 22 years of military service tells me he is right on point!

Interesting And Straight-Forward

So...that was fascinating. Look I enjoyed the data driven by facts and not opinion. I already knew the straight numbers on worse case survival are bleak because civil society is fragile and most people are woefully unprepared. This is something I learned at the graduate level...and I still feel unprepared! Better off than most (statistically), but still under prepared. Everyone has to start somewhere and I am glad the author reiterated that point several times throughout the book. I urge people to listen to or read this book, take heed, and begin to take action or stay in action if already only prepared to the post local (short-term) disaster level.

Great advice from an expert in the field -

I picked this book up on a whim and was pleasantly surprised at the vast amount of knowledge Jonathan shares while being tongue-in-cheek about keeping expectations grounded in reality. The self-awareness around the realities of being prepared Jonathan possess make his explanations and scenarios easy to understand and helped me view potential life-or-death situations from new perspectives. The forte of this book without a doubt is Jonathan's angle on the psychological element human survival, something which other books sometimes underplay or outright ignore. I'm for sure going to pick up the sequel to this book as it seems like he double downs on this element. On a side note; the author warns you early on to take his opinions with a grain of salt - do this as you please as some of his personal opinions are quite just that.

Best Book For Preparedness!

All around best book for off grid and peppers. Loved it ! Will be recommending to friends and family!

By far the best on the subject I've come across

This is by far the best and most comprehensive look at how to prepare, or how well prepared you are to date. I've been a prepper on a budget since Y2K and spent 30 years in the military. This author made me rethink some of my existing plans... that's saying something!
