A good book to cut your teeth on

December 22, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

A classic seasteading book before the term existed in the mainstream. A good book to cut your teeth on.

great ideas but...

June 29, 2013

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

a few things are not going to work for most people ... he really loves the idea of eating different seaweeds.... and harps constantly on spirulina as the wonder food. pretty dull diet in my book, but still some great inspiration.

If nothing else, an enjoyable read and if you want to know all the different kinds of edible seaweed, a good reference.

The book was shipped in a timely manner. My only problem was the binding of the book was so dried out that by the time I got to page 15 the pages started to fall out. By the time I finished reading the book 1/3 of the pages had come out of the book.

changed my life immediately upon reading it!

December 28, 2009

Format: Paperback

This book set me in many different directions all that have had a positive effect upon my life. Since reading it I have experimented with sprouting, solar power, cheese making, both dairy and sprout cheese, wheat and barley grass growing and ingesting, living and growing food in in small area conditions, thermos bottle cooking, algae ,distillation, bread baking, seaweed in the diet etc. I truly wish there was more inspirational and useful books such as this it has really changed my life for the better.I hope you can find a less pricey version , buy, read, and experiment with these subjects !! Have fun!!!

Ingenius Lo-Tech Ideas to Achieving Self-Sufficientcy

November 1, 2002

Format: Paperback

What I especially liked about this book was the ingenius ideas the author came up with, ie, a simple solar still to convert salt water to fresh using just the sun's energy. He even has plans for a portable still that can be rolled up when not in use. A couple of my seakayaking friends are using them as a backup for freshwater needs. He also has a great plan for setting up a mini-greenhouse up in the bow of the sailboat to ensure a supply of fresh vegetables. Also ideas to use the time at sea to make in-demand items to sell whenever or if you pull into a port. All ideas can be folded down for portability and easy storage. Could work well in a hot, dry land environment as well as on the water.

How to have world-wide mobility in a self-sufficient habitat

July 26, 1998

Format: Paperback

Back in the 1970's with the new homesteading and back-to-the-land movement, there was a small and brief interest in "seasteading", a maritime equivalent. This book, along with The Solar Boat Book, is the best how-to book addressing this issue. Read it along with Annie Hill's Voyaging on a Small Income. Neumeyer discusses topics I've not seen elsewhere, such as food production at sea, trade goods, diet for maximum nutrition WITH minimum weight and space, weapons, etc. Right now there is a colony of sailors that live by this book intentionally adrift in the Sargasso.
