The Freedom Outlaw's Handbook: 179 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution

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 > For you, it would be better to just relax and let talking heads and academics do your thinking for you. <br /> <br />

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

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.

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.
