Dr Smack, I am looking to add a few more medical books to my library.

I have a few first aid books. Looking to get something like Grey's Anatomy.

I just ordered 'The Doom & Bloom Survival Medical Handbook' by Dr Joseph Alton & Amy Alton, ARNP.

Any other good medical reference books that you could recommend for the average OTard?

BTW, I am interested to see ya'lls recommendation on this from Sams.

If ya want get a bare-bones food supply, get a few 5-gallon plastic buckets(food grade, some good lids) Avoid any buckets that had chemicals in it.

Get about 30 pds of rice.
Assortment of dried beans, pinto, red, white.
A few pounds of salt.
Store in these your buckets. Get some O2 absobers for your beans(hand warmers are the same thing).

Bland list but it will keep you alive if the SHTF for a few months.

Get you a good Coleman Stove, a few 1 pd cylinders of propane.

A few cases of bottled water. Some unscented liquid bleach for water. Get a few water containers like Aqua-tainers.(keep water out of sunlight, sunlight promotes algea growth)

Invest in a good water filter system: Sawyer is the best. Katadyn is a good one. Big Berkey, Monolithic are good alternatives...

This, along with guns and ammo and some common sense will get you though a SHTF scenrio.
