Do you all have any recommendations for books on surviving outside and thriving? Of particular interest is homesteading and the Appalachian area. I picked up a book on homesteading and the US army survival guide newest edition. I'm looking to make myself a small library of useful books if the power goes out.

I've picked up the following recently.

Back to Basics: A Complete Guide to Traditional Skills (Back to Basics Guides) The Encyclopedia of Country Living, 50th Anniversary Edition: The Original Manual for Living off the Land & Doing It Yourself Gaia's Garden: A Guide to Home-Scale Permaculture, 2nd Edition Bushcraft: Outdoor Skills and Wilderness Survival Outdoor Skills and Wilderness Survival (Books)

Additional books on herbalism, fermentation, gardening, foraging for your area is ideal.
