Tappan On Survival Price $25.00
by Mel Tappan, with a foreword by Bruce Clayton
Description from Paladin Press
“One of the greatest books ever written on practical survival is back in print for the next generation of self-reliant citizens! Mel Tappan was the godfather of the modern preparedness movement, and this classic collection of his writings is an indispensable resource for information on how to develop a survival mind-set, identify the best survival locations, store food, maintain communications, select firearms and much more. A new foreword by Bruce Clayton, himself an important figure in the preparedness movement after the publication of his book Life After Doomsday in 1980, describes the unique appeal of Tappan’s writings and personality, puts Tappan’s role in the survivalist movement in historical perspective and explains why his work is still highly relevant today.”
Chris Says:
This book is loaded with information from a man who many refer to as a “founding father” of survivalism. Some of the companies may be out-of-date but the information he gives is still excellent. This book would be a good addition to any prepper library.
