Bug Out: The Complete Plan for Escaping a Catastrophic Disaster Before It's Too Late Review

Many books of this type read like a conglomeration of facts, I prefer books that have a nice cadence and flow easily as they are read and this book certainly fits the bill.

This book covers every conceivable type of land that could be suitable for buging out, covers the pros & cons of each type and offers solid advice on how to learn more about each one.

Scott's advice is clear, authoritative and to the point. The entire approach of this book is laid out in logical and sequential steps.

Scott sticks more to tried & true equipment rather than the latest gadgets but he does acknowledge true advances found in some equipment. No gear is a replacement for skills and Scott not only points this out but has practical suggestions along the way for what to learn and practice next.

Rather than telling you exactly what to take and where to go and how to get there, this book presents the myriad trade-offs that come when choosing gear, types of land and modes of transportation and again, aids you in developing your bug out style

As comprehensive as this book is you will do well to heed the authors advice on going out and using the gear and transportation you intend to use. Again, this is a common thread, finding your bug out style and polishing it.

The second part of the book is a great resource for "getting away from it all" even in normal times and I intend to use it as a guide when traveling in different parts of the country.

Did I mention this book is fun to read? How many books like this have quotes from Lao Tzu?

I'd like to see a similar book that covers Southern Mexico and Central America.
