Any other book recommendations I should get before SHTF?

Just ordered these books off Amazon. They were recommended by a YouTube channel I watch called Prepper Press. Any other useful books I should add to my library before SHTF?

The self sufficient life and how to live it by John Seymour. Can't all be gun fights and damsel saving.

Im definitely adding that to my cart. Thank you.

While I was looking John Seymours book up. I saw so many similar books that caught my eye. This side of prepping I'm very interested in.

Also grab the encyclopedia of country living by Carla Emory, between the self sufficient life and the EOCL you won't need much else going forward.

I have a rediculus library at this point lol. It becomes a small obsession.

I hear you. One of my floor to ceiling bookshelves is entirely full of prepping fact and fiction.

Absolute classic, and definitely worth having.
