Some light staining on the edge and a crease on the back cover. Kurt Saxon was an American writer, radio host, survivalist and the author of The Poor Man's James Bond, a series of books on improvised weapons and munitions. He claimed to have coined the term "survivalist".Intended originally for the political Right, The Poor Man's James Bond is now geared for use by the Civil Authorities. It embodies all the practical paramilitary knowledge collected and studied by dissident groups through-out America. It is a kind of Reader's Digest of do-it-yourself mayhem. Sections include the Still, Fougasse, How to Beat a Metal Detector, Evading Pursuit, Eleven Shot Twelve Gauge Shotgun, Blowing Up a Car, Napalm, Poisons and over fifty other fascinating items. 8.5 x 11, softcover, illustrated, 400+ pages.
