Clint Emerson, retired Navy SEAL and author of the bestselling 100
Deadly Skills, presents an explosive, darkly funny, and often
twisted account of being part of an elite team of operatives whose
mission was to keep America safe by whatever means necessary.Clint
Emerson is the only SEAL ever inducted into the International Spy
Museum. Operating from the shadows, with an instinct for running
towards trouble, his unique skill set made him the perfect hybrid
operator. Emerson spent his career on the bleeding edge of
intelligence and operations, often specializing in missions that
took advantage of subterfuge, improvisation, the best in recon and
surveillance tech to combat the changing global battlefield.
MacGyvering everyday objects into working spyware was routine, and
fellow SEALs referred to his activities simply as "special shit."
His parameters were: find, fix, and finish--and of course, leave no
trace. The Right Kind of Crazy is unlike any military memoir you've
ever read because Emerson is upfront about the fact that what makes
you a great soldier and sometimes hero doesn't always make you the
best guy--but it does make for damn good stories.
These 100 skills, adapted for civilians from actual field
experiences of Special Forces operations, offer a complete hands-on
and practical guide to help you survive in the wild no matter the
climate or terrain; be prepared for any crisis; and have the
critical life-saving knowledge for staying safe in any hostile
environment or disaster. 100 Deadly Skills: Survival Edition is
what you need for today's world, combining survival hacks developed
on the battlefield with the low-tech tools you have on hand. This
book is your essential prep manual, from securing shelter, building
fire, finding food, and navigating back to civilization no matter
the environment to thinking like a special forces solider so that
you can survive a hostage situation, an active shooter, a suicide
bomber, or a terrorist threat on the subway, and even apply trauma
medicine as a first responder. Full of specific scenarios to help
you get in the mind-set of survival, 100 Deadly Skills: Survival
Edition is better than a Swiss Army knife whether you're lost at
sea, forced to land a plane, fighting off a bear, or deciding
whether to run, hide, or fight. Next to each skill are
easy-to-grasp detailed illustrations, because when you need to
survive the apocalypse, you don't have time for complicated
instructions.
In today's increasingly dangerous world, threats to your personal
safety are everywhere. From acts of terror to mass shootings, and
from the unseen (and sometimes virtual) matrix of everyday crime,
danger is no longer confined to dark alleys or unstable regions.
Potentially life-threatening circumstances can arise anywhere,
anytime, and Clint Emerson-former Navy SEAL-wants you to be
prepared. 100 Deadly Skills contains proven self-defense skills,
evasion tactics, and immobilizing maneuvers-modified from the world
of black ops-to help you take action in numerous "worst case"
scenarios from escaping a locked trunk, to making an improvised
Taser, to tricking facial recognition software. With
easy-to-understand instructions and illustrations, Emerson outlines
in detail many life-saving strategies and teaches you how to think
and act like a member of the special forces. This complete course
in survival teaches you how to prevent tracking, evade a
kidnapping, elude an active shooter, rappel down the side of a
building, immobilize a bad guy, protect yourself against
cyber-criminals, and much more-all using low-tech to "no-tech"
methods. Clear, detailed, and presented in an easy-to-understand
and execute format, 100 Deadly Skills is an invaluable resource.
Because let's face it, when danger is imminent, you don't have time
for complicated instructions.
