10 Free Survival Resources that Should Be in Your Collection


     One of my favorite parts of being a survivalist is all the knowledge that I get out of it.  There are so many different things that I know and I can do, that other people wouldn't have the first idea about.  I'm always looking for different sources of information and the internet is perhaps the best place to find it.  While I always prefer having paper copies of information, sometimes its not practical to buy all those books I find at one time, so I will keep an electronic copy instead if I can get it.  So here are my top ten electronic books, that you can get for free!

DIY: Char Cloth


     Fire is one of the basics of survival.  It helps us keep warm, it can dry clothes, cook food, provide safety and provide light.  For survivalists, campers, hikers, and really anyone who may find themselves out in the wilderness, knowing how to create fire in one of the most important skills you can have.  Of course there are many different tools to make sure you can bring fire, or at least the ability to start it, with you.  Perhaps one of the best methods though is char cloth.
