About this listen
Embrace the serenity of off-grid living with these essential skills and strategies for self-reliant, secure, and sustainable living.
With the rise in government unreliability, international conflicts, and increasing natural and environmental disasters, the sense of safety and security offered by cities appears to be diminishing.
All these have also created a growing demand and a dwindling supply of goods, especially food and medicine necessary for survival.
But how do you truly go off-grid? Is it practical? Achievable? Or even feasible? And if you are to depend on nature, how will you defend yourself from it?
That’s where this book comes into play…It presents a definitive blueprint mixed with practical skills to arm you for the challenges of this satisfying and serene way of life.
Inside this essential off-grid and wilderness manual, you will discover:
- A definitive 6-part blueprint to plan and design a sustainable off-grid practice (whether it’s budgeting, building codes, or finding the right community)
- How to prepare your mind for the unpredictable–wilderness requires resilience; discover how to harness it to craft yourself a comfortable living
- Water, water, everywhere? Discover how to tap into your most important resource with rainwater harvesting and water purification techniques
- How to work with nature to keep your belly full–master the A-Z of gardening, foraging, hunting, and preservation for fresh food year-long
- DIY sustainable creature comforts–from building your shelter to setting up renewable energy sources such as solar and wind
- Crucial first-aid skills and hands-on techniques for safety in the face of emergencies and natural disasters
- All you need to know to keep yourself mentally and physically healthy–with these simple strategies, isolation in the wild will never eat at you

When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

In today’s unpredictable world, being prepared is invaluable, and I’m so glad I found this.

Informative and Exciting!
'Off Grid Wilderness Survival Made Simple: Master Skills for Thriving In The Woods, Doing It On A Budget, Not Being Scared and Being Completely Independent From The Grid' was both informative and exciting. My son is interested in this subject, as well as camping and hiking.
The author gave anecdotes and perspective as to how to survive off the grid. I enjoyed the narrator and the production, and listened to it instead of reading. I would love to see the author create a tactical guidebook to implementing these strategies. It's always good to be prepared. My favorite sections addressed mental health and pets which I don't always see covered in these types of books!

Goes into a lot of detail you need to think about
I was raised partially off grid and this book really covers the details needed to go off grid. There is so much to consider and this book leads you through the process. It doesn't cover everything- sure, but it is a guide to tell you what you need to consider so you can go finish the research on your own.

The book was a good listen, just didn’t like the AI sounding voice that was used. Not terrible just too monotone for me. But overall it was good.
