Product Description
Modern retreaters have a new enemy to fear - our own government. In this companion to the classic book The Survival Retreat, Ragnar answers such vital questions as how to identify exactly who threatens your freedom, when to occupy your retreat and how to fight the government when it goes hard-core against you.

 Concise and well written January 14, 2008
Horrible editing, as is the standard for books published by Paladin Press. However, the book contains loads of great information, both reasoned and anecdotal, just like most Paladin Press books. Ragnar Benson does well in correcting the flaws of this books predecessor.

This is a newer written version of the survival retreat,I personaly find the older version to be of more help to me.Not that the new book doesnt have alot of updated info in it but i still find my roots in the older book.
 Glad I got it at the library January 3, 2007

This popped up as a book that Amazon thought I'd be interested in. I've been fooled by those reccommendations before, so I got it at the local library first. It was a big letdown.
As other reviewers have written, there were no concrete techniques; no take-away's from this book. There was a paragraph or so on "disappearing", but it primarily served as a teaser for another Paladin Press Book on hiding your idenity. There was nothing on the design, selection or provisioning of the survival retreat (since "that information was covered in other books").
I read it in a couple of hours; many pages are little more than full page, stock-image photos. I could have read it in even less time had I decided to skip over the screed about black helicopters, Waco, etc.
The title has potential to be a good book, but this fails in the execution.
 Not as I expected January 29, 2003

The book was much too vague. I expected lists and concrete ideas, not statements like "I think it would probably work to:" or "Some people have told me they have". I would not buy it again. Not enough information for the price.
basic, lacking in depth of subject March 10, 2002
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The book is interesting but too basic. The book could possibly be of use for someone who is new to the subject. Benson only touches on material in a overview. The book would have been a better value, if he expanded on the subjects that were addressed. Benson has written many other books that are worth buying, this is not one of them. Read Benson's other books to better understand the subject material, they covered their respective subjects in much more detail.
