Reviews
"In this Boy Scouts Guide for the Pending Apocalypse, Matte Resist penned one of the most fascinating and riveting how-to books I've ever read. Many punks and radicals preach a live-off-the-grid rant, but Matte shows how a family can make use of common items and opportunities to have a cheap, full and happy life. This book stands above piles of how-to drivel because of Matte's explanation of not just how, but why we should ride bikes, build musical instruments, and plant gardens. He's not raising a middle finger to the status " he's too busy with hammer and wrench in hand." -Shane Speal, cigar box guitar historian/musician, "In this Boy Scouts Guide for the Pending Apocalypse, Matte Resist penned one of the most fascinating and riveting how-to books I've ever read.

Wonderful product in excellent condition. Packed extremely well and made it unbroken even with being labeled the mail person still threw it. Glad it was safe.

Sometimes I'm hesitant to mark a package "fragile" or "do not bend" because it seems that's the #1 way to ensure that it does get bent or thrown. Very glad it showed up in good condition!
