Gang Intelligence Manual: Identifying And Understanding Modern-Day Violent Gangs In The United States

6 reviews
Bill Valentine

Paladin Press, 1995

Good, If Slightly Outdated, Info on Gangs
Although the book is a bit outdated, it's a very good book on all manner of street gangs. And though it doesn't cover the gangs of the area I live in, the information is still valid and pretty well relevant. If you have children and want to learn what to watch out for, or if you're in a profession that deals with them, then this book is a must. Especially if you combine it with the other book ...

Wilderness Evasion: A Guide To Hiding Out and Eluding Pursuit in Remote Areas

16 reviews
Michael Chesbro

Paladin Press, 2002

If You Go Into The Woods - READ THIS BOOK
I have to confess to being a fan of the author Michael Chesbro. His books offer lots of practical information, and "Wilderness Evasion" is no exception. The ability to stay out of sight in remote and wilderness areas has its place even today. Wilderness Evasion teaches you how to avoid being tracked, how to build low-key shelters, how to avoid dogs, find food, and generally 'stay lost' when you ...

Tactical Pistol Marksmanship: How to Improve Your Combat Shooting Skills

23 reviews
Gabriel Suarez, Gabe Suarez

Paladin Press, 2001

Highly informative, light on fluff, heavy on practical details
Gabe Suarez does a good job of introducing the novice to; and reminding the experienced shooter of the practical aspects of pistol use in tactical deployment. Suarez introduces the reader, briefly, to historical considerations, ammunition and pistol selection (based on experience and personal preference), types of malfunctions, grip, stance and the usual basics that can never be emphasized ...

Great book to learn your rights!!
I read 200 pages straight of this book last night. I've been researching on my own the rules and tricks of credit repair, and this book goes deeply into YOUR rights and how creditors often violate the rules. I highly recommend reading this for anyone who wants to devote a lot of time and effort into your credit.

Tactical Advantage: A Definitive Study Of Personal Small-Arms Tactics

27 reviews
Gabriel Suarez

Paladin Press, 1998

Excellent straight forward overview of individual tactics.
This book is a great overview of individual tactical movement in a hostile environment. The only thing that surprised me was the lack of mention about a lot of ricochets travelling down walls about 6-8 inches off their surface and how that applies to your location relative to walls while moving and standing in that hostile environment. Regardless, it's still a great book and I'd recommend it to ...

Loren W. Christensen

Paladin Press, 1996

Awesome Book
I recommend this book to any martial arts student that feels like they have plateaued on speed. The relaxation methods really work and the speed drills are fun and really make a difference. Buy this book, read it cover to cover and use the authors techniques to make yourself faster than you ever thought possible.

Surgical Speed Shooting: How To Achieve High-Speed Marksmanship In A Gunfight

35 reviews
Andy Stanford

Paladin Press, 2001

Best Book of Its Type Bar None
This book is a "must read" for anyone interested in accomplishing just what the title suggests - surgical speed shooting. This would include those who shoot IDPA and IPSC but I find the book geared more for self-defense. I find myself reading the book several times a year and have worn out three of them since first purchasing the book several years ago. The book is (in a word) concise. It's ...

Good basic book on some nasty techniques
The Dirty Dozen: 12 Nasty Fighting Techniques For Any Self-Defense Situation is a simple little book containing some practical advice and techniques for self-defense. As a self-defense author and instructor myself, I found it to be a quick read based on some sound principles. The book starts out with a brief description of some of the threats you might face, and then goes into a chapter on ...

Trapper's Bible: Traps, Snares & Pathguards

9 reviews
Dale Martin

Paladin Press, 1987

A wealth of knowledge
The title to this book is somewhat misleading. It is not a trapper's bible. This book covers do-it-yourself snares, homemade box traps and path guards. However, it covers these topics better than I have ever seen before. I learned more about these topics in the 1 1/2 hours it took me to read this book than I did in 4 years of online research/fooling around, etc. The basics of snaring are ...

Get Touch the easy way!
Having owned this book for little over a week now, and only having read it some-what quickly, and just the once so far... it is well layed out, easy to follow the instructions and simple in the language the auther uses. Most of the instruction is suited to the streets and the defence needed for most of the common attacks on the unsuspecting public. So all-in-all I would say it is a book I would ...

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

3 reviews
Claire Wolfe

Paladin Press, 2007

At once hard-hitting and occasionally funny
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 ...

N. Mashiro

Paladin Press, 1979

One of the first books I ever owned on the subject!
Being the author of several books on the martial arts and fighting, I am always looking for books of exceptional quality to add to my library. If I have a book in my library, it's definitely worth owning. One such book is N. Mashiro's, "Black Medicine: The Dark Art of Death." This was one of the first books that I ever purchased years ago when I was in high school and starting to learn about ...

The Main Meridians (Encyclopedia Of Dim-Mak)

32 reviews
Erle Montaigue, Wally Simpson

Paladin Press, 1997

From a martial artist with no agenda
I've read every book Earle Montaigue has written. This text is complete. It shows the exact location of the points, the effects of striking, and the order of striking to be most effective. You even get selected techniques that would make use of the points. Mr. Montaigue never said that he practiced striking each & every point to test the results. That would have taken a lifetime. And most points ...

confidence crimes cop
Dennis has written a book that, by the title, has you thinking he has crossed over to the other side. However, once you finish the book, "How to become a Professional Con Artist", you will understand that those who have chosen this life are void of any human committment such as love, family and a future. Dennis takes you into the world of the con artist and shows you that money is to be made, ...

The Swiss are certainly prepared for anything!
In his landmark book, Total Resistance, the Swiss Army Guide to Guerrila Warfare and Underground Operations, Major Von Dach has certainly expanded my mind and has shown through practical participation how all can resist tryanical invaders, whenever and wherever the forces of tyrany raise their ugly head. Despite the fact that it was writen in 1958 and released in the United States in 1965, the ...
