RAGNAR’S URBAN SURVIVAL
By Ragnar Benson

      A Hard-Times Guide to Staying Alive in the City.
The tap’s run dry, the supermarkets have been ransacked, the power is off and the low rumble of tanks can be heard in the distance. The unprepared who refused to believe that such a thing could happen here will live as wretched refugees – if they live at all. But for the prepared – for the city survivors – life will go on.
America’s leading survival author debunks the myth that the only way to survive is to stock a retreat in the mountains. He tells urban dwellers how to find water, trap and butcher game, preserve food, position a city retreat for maximum safety, avoid troops and barter with other survivors. You’ll learn which weapons are absolute necessities and which aren’t worth having and confront the all-important topic of survival nursing care. 200pp  5 ˝ x 8 ˝

THE MODERN SURVIVAL RETREAT
by Ragnar Benson

      A New Vital Approach to Retreat Theory and Practice
Survivalists no longer have to fear invading Russian armies or nuclear war -  the deadly actions at Ruby Ridge and Waco prove that our own government is among the greatest threats to individual freedom today. In light of this disturbing fact, Ragnar Benson has written a companion volume to his classic 1983 book The Survival Retreat. 
In this new book, Ragnar revisits such nuts-and-bolts items as picking a retreat location and stocking it properly, but he also addresses such vital issues as pinpointing which government agency is the greatest threat to you; recognizing “trip wire” events that tell you when to occupy your retreat; using new technology, from power generators to the Internet, to survive; prevailing against massive government resources and  weapons during a siege; and much more.
