What book do you have in your BOB?
I know it's not really a Prepping question, but as an Avid reader I have 3 books in my BOB and considering it may be my only reading material for a few days or more it took some consideration to pick them.
I have
(1) A Christmas Carol By Charles Dickens (my favourite book)
(2) Dhammapada translated by K Sri Dhammananda pocket edition (which has yet to fit into any pocket i've ever had...LOL).
and Finally (3) A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson....it just seemed appropriate and is a great book.
what do you carry if any?

and for fiction something with Kurt Wallander

RE: What book do you have in your BOB?
I genuinely carry 3 books in my BOB.
1. Foraging.
2. Bushcraft (Ray Mears)
3. How to build a log cabin.
They're probably the heaviest items in my BOB.

RE: What book do you have in your BOB?
I think I'll add a copy of my liitle survival guide so I can remember wot I rote
and a paper copy of the forum IGNORE list so I can remember who to ignore after TSHTF
Getting older and my memory is failing but I can still remember who owes me a pint

SAS survival manual- pocket edition.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

I have thousands, literally thousands. On my kindle.
Actually, that's a lie. I don't have a BOB.
