Here is a list of almost 200 things to do 'til the revolution. The Freedom Outlaw's Handbook advocates that the country is mid-way between a revolt against a non-working system and compliance within that system. The ideal citizen may be obedient to such an order, but not Claire Wolfe: her Freedom Outlaw's Handbook tells how to confront tyranny to win back small freedoms, from learning how to keep private information out of the public eye to preparing for the worst possibilities. At once hard-hitting and occasionally funny.

If you want to live a private life and/or be self-reliant, this is one of the books you must read and hold onto. Add it to your library. This is an excellent reference tool. The subjects inside are eye-opening and thought provoking.

Learn why you should NOT just go with the flow. This book will teach you how to organize your affairs, prepare for unexpected hardships that always seem to pop up, and be a good neighbor. You will learn why individual freedom and liberty are so important (if you don't know already) and how to preserve yours. You will learn what you can do and what you shouldn't waste your time with when you get frustrated with the way the politicians are running things.

There are plenty of references to sites online where you can find helpful freebies--like PGP encryption software downloads (without the built-in backdoors that the feds can use to discover your favorite secret family recipes).

I didn't get my copy back from the person I loaned it to, but, to me, it's worth buying again, and I will be soon.

Claire Wolfe has a gift for distilling the most mind-numbing issues into easily-digestible & understandable bites of information.

Claire makes the whole freedom vs statism topic accessible. Yes, there's a definite spin on the information: This lady is passionate about YOUR freedom.

If you suspect that you are not, in fact, as free as you could be -- get this book!

If you are comfortable in your fantasy that the expert elites only have your best interests at heart -- don't waste your time. Such a dose of distilled reality could be hazardous to your delusions. You might actually find yourself examining your own belief system <<*Shudder!*>> For you, it would be better to just relax and let talking heads and academics do your thinking for you.

All in all, this is an excellent book that is well worth the price. Some of the entries on self-reliance and promoting freedom are fabulous and the book provides plenty of links and resources for further information. Many times, I found myself putting the book down to go to the computer and follow up on an idea or product. It should be noted, however, that readers should be careful in their approach. Fun With Superglue and other segments dealing with fake ID's could get you in significant trouble for little benefit. One of the most valuable aspects of this book was that it made me think about practical aspects of Freedom and Revolution. At what point do we, as Freedom-Loving Americans, get off the couch and take the steps necessary to remove an irrevocably corrupt government? This book will open your mind and expand your horizons.

An excellent introduction to pro-freedom/pro-individual ideas by one of my favorite writers. Forget politics and take responsibility for yourself.

I want to apologize for not giving this book five stars. I feel guilty not doing it. I'm a huge Claire Wolfe fan, and loved the heck out of this book.

So why the missing star? Because 179 is a bit of a stretch. She could have called it 150, and I would have bought it, loved it, and given it five star. But 179 is disingenuous.

Rather than The 5,000 Year Leap, Mr. Glen Beck should be shilling this book on his radio and television programs. Do you really distrust the system and want to derail the monolithic state? Here is a handy primer of dirty tricks to assist in monkey-wrenching the beast.

I know I didn't give this book five stars (sorry, Claire!) but I can't recommend it strongly enough, and suggest you pick up a copy or three while the presses are still free.

After a hiatus, Claire Wolfe has returned, and updated her two prior classics, _101 Things_ and _Don't Shoot The Bastards Yet._ If you liked those books, you'll love this one.

While her priorities are not my own on everything, I can recommend this book very highly indeed.

Few can follow every tip in this book but there are so many that you can, it is worth the effort and the expense to purchase and read.

With the new change of Government coming into power, with their stated MARXIST agenda, not only to include taking over free enterprise, but too, to eliminate your personal freedoms.

This book is a MUST.

Don't "pooh-pooh" the reality of the situation here in America, get this book, and get prepared.

A second passport will help in escaping the coming Socialistic-Marxist Regime, and tyranny that is besetting America now. Make your plans NOW, be prepared.

This book will stimulate your thinking on the NEW WORLD ORDER, and loss of your personal freedom(s).

The attitude of the book is solid, advices are controversial but from personal security/privacy stand point are sound, yet there's too much water, and well-known basics, like pgp your emails, install firewall and encryprt harddrives. Don't talk on phones. Don't tell anything to strangers and make sure your family doesn't. etc. Good, but basic stuff.
