Can anyone recommend a detailed urban survival manual that offers suggestions, advice and techniques?

I am looking for a book similar to the US Army's Survival Manual. However, the Army's survival guide does not have a section on urban survival. I live in a major city and want to get information on where to get water, food and shelter in the event I run out of supplies in a war, financial collapse, governmental take-over or natural disaster. I like the book "Steal This Book," but the information in it is very outdated from the 1970s. Anyone know of some comparable books? Thanks.


A better idea would be for you to take some classes in first aid and volunteer to participate in disaster relief drills. If you look around you can find many opportunities to prepare yourself to make a difference after a disaster.

I have a secret desire to live on the streets. I think I would be quite good at the urban survival thing......

I have actually slept outside on several occasions when I've been on holiday abroad, and I thought it was cool. kind of a survival instinct thing. Is that weird?
I've actually considered doing it for a few months, maybe longer. Is that weird?
Or maybe even indefinately.


No, not weird. Immature.

All you are trying to do is to reassure yourself that you can live your life, and it's not too hard or too scary.

There is Wilderness survival and Urban survival but is there Outer Space survival?

Does Outer Space survival exist or how do astronauts train for space emergencies?


They train as much as they can. You might like to visit the NASA site for better info.

For example.

Where is the city that bear grylls films the urban survival episode, and why is it all empty?

somewhere in eastern europe/baltic sea region? where? and why doesn't anyone live there?


Well it's not explicitly stated anywhere for sure, but here it confirms it was set in the US http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/manvsw ild/blog/blog.html although wiki says it was in Poland http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Man _vs._Wild_episodes

Doesn't really help much, but this seems to be an episode which is more about the "it could happen anywhere" and being specific to the location setting :0)

  • Nice Rally, Huh? « UrbanSurvival

    Well, I have to admit it, this has been a near-perfect rally going into the last part of options week.  But could things turn down – and maybe vilently – in the next couple of weeks?  Why sure!

    Take the headline off ABC: “ Drowning in Debt:  What the Nation’s Budget Woes Mean for You:  Economists predict cutbacks, tax increases that ‘

    aren’t even imaginable’”.

    If that doesn’t curdle your breakfast, how about “ Lone voice warns of debt threat to Fed ” which reports that FRB of KC bank president Thomas Hoenig is saying just like we have for, oh, a couple of years, that when all this debt ‘goes liquid’ that we’re going to have wild inflation and several thousand dollar gold prices.
