This is a 3-book bundle, which addresses various subtopics, including but not limited to these: Book 1: When it all hits the fan, some know how to survive and some don’t. Knowledge and experience are at the root of survival in troubled times. We do not always know when those times come, so it can be useful to explore the possibilities of living off the grid, becoming independent, and living without water from the faucet, electricity, or internet. In this book, we’ll touch on some of the most important elements of survival, such as: Creating water filters Getting clean, purified water. Staying cool during hot seasons without technology or airconditioning. Surviving in the winter and enduring extreme cold weather. Book 2: This book covers a range of topics that don’t seem to be related at first, but if you look closer, you’ll see the bigger picture. All of these topics are more or less connected to the idea of fending for yourself, being able to survive off the grid, or in case of a major disaster. The first chapter focuses on something specific: Survival in the jungle. As we all know, the jungle is beautiful but also infested with bacteria, bugs, venomous and predatorial animals, and full of both toxic and edible plants. Learning what to do there can make all the difference if you were ever to make it through in such a climate. Last but not least, we’ll go over some self-defense techniques and gadgets people could use to defend themselves if they ever get attacked or cornered. Book 3: In this short but informative book, we will focus on three essentials of survival skills: First, we’ll talk about the best ways to purify water. This, alone, is something all people need to know. Water can make you sick or heal you and keep you alive. Knowing what you’re doing, is what will help you most. Second, the book focuses on First Aid skills. If you ever get wounded, exhausted, dehydrated, or you encounter something like a sprained ankle or major bruise, what do you do? You rely on your knowledge and fix it! Learn how in this book! Third, an emphasis is placed on finding water in the desert. Many misconceptions about this have been circling around on the internet. It is our mission to help you learn the truth: What works and what doesn’t.
