Precise Disarray: The 2020's have not been kind. If you aren't already trying to be more self sufficient, then you might want to get on it. Though I imagine you are, if you are sniffing through books like this. This is an encyclopedia, by design it isnt all inclusive but its an impressive start. Are you old enough to remember encyclopedias? Little bit about everything, right? You can expect that here, except for a little more detail PLUS relevant links and addition resources. So would say it is a pretty good resource. I have lots of books, and I am super pleased with this so far. I am not at all disappointed. Very glad to have added it to my "prepper library". Because you know what? If power goes out, all digital resources become unavailable. So have an assortment of books. Use this as a solid starting point, learn what you can, add mote books to your library, print some info out and stuff into a binder, take notes, etc. But, if you ONLY had this book? It is going to make you more confident in having a go-to resource for a whole slew of information across all the things you may need to do in a self sufficient lifestyle.
Neat little add on: there is a short "achievement checklists". 25 or so...
