Total Survival: How to Organize Your Life, Home, Vehicle, and Family for Natural Disasters, Civil Unrest, Financial Meltdowns, Medical Epidemics, and Political Upheaval
by James C. JonesKnowing that no survival book can cover every conceivable aspect of surviving in every conceivable situation, in Total Survival, veteran survivalist James C. Jones delivers tips that cover the most likely needs of readers and for which there is useful and practical instruction. His goal is to share a variety of practical survival skills, principles, and ideas in an easy-to read format that will aid the reader in becoming stronger, safer, and more self-reliant. The ten principles of survival that Jones sets out are derived from analysis of true survival accounts. Studies of why some people survived fires, plane crashes, assaults, and other deadly situations while others in the same situations perished confirm that these principles made the difference. Although the data and concepts in Total Survival are derived from accounts of acute disasters—such as tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and epidemics—they apply equally well to chronic disasters, such as economic decline, shortages, unemployment, climate change, and personal family or health issues. In reality, all of life is a survival challenge, and a survival emergency is just a high-intensity life test. These ten survival principles are the key to success in everyday life, especially during an emergency.

Totally Frank: The Frank McGarvey Story
by Frank McGarvey Ronnie EsplinDuring a glorious but controversial career, Frank McGarvey won every major trophy in Scottish football. Under Alex Ferguson at St Mirren in the 1970s, he inspired a young Saints team to victory in the First Division - an effort that attracted the attention of English giants Liverpool and Scotland manager Jock Stein. After a frustrating spell at Anfield, he headed back north to join boyhood heroes Celtic, with whom he won five medals in five seasons. However, he was shown the door by Davie Hay just days after scoring the winner for the club in the 1985 Scottish Cup final.McGarvey then returned to St Mirren, with whom he won the Scottish Cup two years later, and he continued his success after a move into management, helping Clyde to win the Second Division trophy. But this is only half of Frank McGarvey's story. Throughout his remarkable career and beyond, McGarvey fought and, for the most part, lost a battle with gambling, which cost him his marriage, home and self-respect.In Totally Frank, McGarvey chronicles his many highs and lows, and reveals how he finally succeeded in overcoming his gambling addiction.
Totem Salmon: Life Lessons from Another Species
by Freeman HousePart lyrical natural history, part social and philosophical manifesto, Totem Salmon tells the story of a determined band of locals who've worked for over two decades to save one of the last purely native species of salmon in California. The book-call it the zen of salmon restoration-traces the evolution of the Mattole River Valley community in northern California as it learns to undo the results of rapacious logging practices; to invent ways to trap wild salmon for propagation; and to forge alliances between people who sometimes agree on only one thing-that there is nothing on earth like a Mattole king salmon. House writes from streamside: "I think I can hear through the cascades of sound a systematic plop, plop, plop, as if pieces of fruit are being dropped into the water. Sometimes this is the sound of a fish searching for the opening upstream; sometimes it is not. I breathe quietly and wait. " Freeman House's writing about fish and fishing is erotic, deeply observed, and simply some of the best writing on the subject in recent literature. House tells the story of the annual fishing rituals of the indigenous peoples of the Klamath River in northern California, one that relies on little-known early ethnographic studies and on indigenous voices-a remarkable story of self-regulation that unites people and place. And his riffs on the colorful early history of American hatcheries, on property rights, and on the "happiness of the state" show precisely why he's considered a West Coast visionary. Petitions to list a dozen West Coast salmon runs under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act make saving salmon an issue poised to consume the Pacific West. "Never before, said Federal officials, has so much land or so many people been given notice that they will have to alter their lives to restore a wild species" (New York Times, 2/27/98). Totem Salmon is set to become the essential read for this newest chapter in our relations with other wild things.
Toto: Memorias y confesiones de Jorge Da Silveira
by Marcelo InversoUn libro revelador sobre uno de los periodistas más populares, controvertidos y directos en la historia del deporte uruguayo. Jorge da Silveira es un referente del periodismo deportivo uruguayo que se hizo a sí mismo a fuerza de trabajo y conocimiento. Trabajó con los más grandes en Uruguay y recorrió el mundo detrás de la celeste y los equipos uruguayos. Siempre dijo lo que pensó. Aunque fuera difícil e impopular. Nunca comulgó con los poderes de turno en el fútbol y denunció los abusos de las estructuras que rodean al deporte rey, hasta el punto de arriesgar por ello su trabajo. El "Toto" no tiene pelos en la lengua, y así lo deja claro en este libro, en el que repasa lo principal de su vida y el fútbol sin escatimar detalles sobre las principales polémicas que rodearon su trayectoria. El enfrentamiento con Tenfield; el distanciamiento de Oscar Tabárez; los claros y oscuros del proceso de selección; las posibilidades de Uruguay en Rusia 2018; Nacional y Peñarol, los grandes y los chicos en Uruguay; la corrupción en el fútbol; aciertos y errores; la vida, la muerte, la fe y la política. Los diálogos y recuerdos de una vida llena de momentos con los jugadores más notables de la historia. No queda nada fuera de una agenda tan vasta como la propia carrera de uno de los periodistas con más mundiales en sus espaldas.
