Like the title says, I'm looking for a site that has some survival, guns, shelter, food identification/preparation, water, military, etc manuals that I can download. I have some on my computer already that I got from a link posted eons ago on GIM1 (of course I didn't save the link, just DLed what I thought I would want and forgot about it) and I'm looking for anywhere else that might have something like that. Of course free is best!

We bought a NookColor and I want to load a good amount of PDF/.doc manuals on there for casual reading/if I ever need them kind of thing.

Of course some day when time, money, and space permits I would love to get around to printing them as well!

Anyone got anything else? I'll check this GSUS library out



EDIT: I'll try uploading some of the files that I have, see how this upload thing works

I agree. Needs better marketting. It needs to be on mainstreet instead of in a hotdog stand in a back alley. ;D

Bumping this, still looking for a link to owners manuals, military manuals, etc... in PDF or .doc formats

From elsewhere on the internet:

Though most of these are taken from the "Treasure" book list, I am putting them in this new Recession Proof GLP thread for ease of finding. They are organized into categories. If you like what you see, check back occasionally, because I will add to them, but will put additions at the foot of each category (in a new color) rather than on a new post.

These are what I consider to be, essential or very helpful books and information (all free downloads) for the times we're living in and coming into rapidly.

This is a great resource site for homesteaders, people interested in sustainability and survival techniques. There is so much here that the site deserves its own listing.
Downloading directly from the site is free, but does require sign up and some information (including info on what you plan on doing with the materials provided). It's worth it!

This is yet another almost incredible information resource for all things homestead. It will take time, but is well worth the dig and everything is available for free download.
