Briefly put, two thousand years ago both Old and New Testaments warned us that the culmination of history would be marked by the reunion of the nations of the old Roman Empire in Europe; the restoration of the state of Israel [and the increasing hostility of all nations toward her]; the implementation of a one-world governmental system; the imposition of a world-wide cashless monetary system; the development of a synchretistic world religion, based upon man, and presided over by a false prophet; the rise to power of a benign world dictator, who [once firmly in control] would eliminate individual freedoms, demonstrate iron- willed ferocity and cruelty, and make himself the object of worship; and world-wide apostacy, coupled with active persecution and execution of Christians. If you're interested, check for yourself in Ezekiel 38 and 39; Daniel 7; Zechariah 12-14; Matthew 24; 2 Thessalonians 4; and the Book of Revelation. The phenomenal rise of the EEC, the creation of the State of Israel, the increasing surrender of international authority and policing power to the U.N., recurrent and increasing currency and financial crises, and the gradual abandonment of the Biblical revelation on which Western civilisation was built, all give us due warning that very tough and delusive times are coming. We should be as skilled in reading the spiritual portents of the times in which we live as we are in reading the weather, and we should prepare accordingly. The following carefully-chosen books from various publishers are all solid, informative and factual, and would well repay careful reading. As for myself, I'm trusting to the grace and mercy of God in Jesus Christ, and not in the dangerous chimera of "human progress", and I hope that you are too!

Softcover, illust., 72 pages, $12 THE ROYAL MARINES COMMANDOS FITNESS & SURVIVAL SKILLS The original "leathernecks", whose cheerful motto is "first to land, last to leave", the Royal Marines were most recently tasked under NATO to the defence of Norway. This book thus gives not only a condensed and invaluable description of commando training and techniques, but also has a superb section on cold-weather fighting and survival skills. As an aside, the token company of 40 marines stationed on the Falklands when the Argentine invasion started, together with the newly arrived replacement company - a total of 80 men commanded by two majors - played havoc with the vastly superior Argentine invasion force, and had to be *ordered* to surrender by the Governor-General. Their miniscule detachment on South Georgia, when ordered to surrender by an Argentine warship, promptly demolished its superstructure with a TOW missile and shot down its helicopter. Then they took to the frozen hills as guerrillas! This is the spirit we may need to emulate before too long! 176 pages. UK price 4.75 pounds [US price, equivalent in dollars].

Having read with interest some recent exchanges on food storage v.living off the land, I thought this invaluable book might be worth recommending as a "third option". I have my own copy, and can't recommend it highly enough [it's certainly *better* than the following description, taken off the back cover, would indicate]. It's a simply- written *goldmine* of information on food production and "independent living" - worth investing $6.96 in, even if you don't buy the farm [it may even help you *avoid* "buying the farm"!] FIVE ACRES AND INDEPENDENCE M.G Kains Anyone who has ever dreamed of getting back to the soil will get from Maurice Grenville Kains' practical and easy -to-understand discussions a more complete view of what small-scale farming means. Most likely, you, like thousands of others who have read "Five Acres and Independence, will come away with specific projects that you can begin, specific plans that you can start to materialize. The farmer in you will begin to appear, bringing you closer to the fulfillment of that dream of on dependence on a small farm of your own. Whether you already own a suitable place or whether you are still looking, "Five Acres and Independence" will help you learn to evaluate land for both its total economic and its specific agricultural possibilities. There are methods of calculating costs of permanent improvements - draining the land, improving soil, planting wind breaks, putting in septic tanks, cellars, irrigation systems, greenhouses, etc. - and methods of carrying out those improvements. There are suggestions for specific crops - strawberries, grapes, vegetables, orchards, spring, summer and fall crops, transplanting, timing, repairing what already exists - with methods of deciding what is best for your land and purposes, and methods of making each of them pay. There are suggestions of animals for the small-scale farmer -goats, chickens, hens - and means of working them into your overall farm design. And finally there are suggestions for keeping your small farm in top production condition, methods of continually increasing the value of your farm, methods of marketing your produce, methods of accurately investing in improvements, virtually everything a small- scale farmer needs to know to make his venture economically sound. Some things, of course, have changed since 1940 when M. G. Kains revised "Five Acres and Independence". But the basic down-to-earth advice of one of the most prominent men in recent American agriculture, and the methods of farming the small-scale, pre-DDT farm, are still pretty much the same. Much of the information in this book was built on USDA and state farm bureau reports; almost all of it was personally tested by M. G. Kains either on his own farms or on farms of the people who trusted him as an experi- enced consultant. His book went through more than 30 editions in the first ten years after it was first printed and helped countless small farmers attain their dream; it continues today as an exceptional source for those who want to make their first farming attempt. Unabridged republication of the second (1940) edition. New introduction by J. E. Oldfield. 95 figures. Appendices. Index. xvi + 397pp. 5 3/8" x 8 1/2". Paperbound. $6.96.

BEAR ATTACKS - Their Causes and Avoidance [$14.95] - Although mercifully rare, bear attacks do occur and every outdoorsman travelling, fishing, hunting, camping or canoeing in bear country owes it to himself to understand something of bear behaviour, bear foods and locations, actions or situations which can trigger a bear attack, bear behaviour signals, avoiding an encounter, what to do when confronted by a bear and signs of bear activity.This is probably the best and most comprehensive book on this subject, written by the leading researcher in the field.

FAR FROM HELP: Backcountry Medical Care [$18.95] - what happens when you can't dial 911? Many books describe how to provide "first aid" medical care under emergency conditions, yet in remote wilderness areas it may be days or weeks before professional medical help can be obtained. This 241-page book goes beyond all other "outdoor" medical texts. It's clearly and concisely written and illustrated for those who know nothing about first aid, even as it provides practical information for highly skilled medical professionals who may suddenly find themselves without the technology available in modern hospital conditions.
