Book Description
George Beahm, a former U.S. Army major, draws on his experience to discuss the military science of the sprawling Star Wars universe: its personnel, weapons, technology, tactics and strategy, including an analysis of its key battles to explain how the outmanned and outgunned rebels ultimately prevailed against overwhelming forces. Contrasting the military doctrine of the real world with the fictional world of Star Wars, the author constructively criticizes the military strengths and weaknesses of Darth Vader’s Galactic Empire and Kylo Ren’s First Order... From Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) to Rogue One (2016), this timely book demystifies the operational arts in an accessible and entertaining way for military personnel and civilians. Replete with a glossary of military terms, this book is supplemented with an annotated bibliography.

Table of Contents Introduction Equipment for Building Fires Making Your Own Char- Cloth Up to date paper maps Food and Water Easy to Make High-Calorie Granola Bars Dried Meat Pemmican Extra Batteries For Your Cell Phone Charger Weaponry Clothing Hypothermia Treatment Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction I was getting to be a bit sick and tired of all those idiotic escapist story so-called romantic novel theme lines, when a woman got into her car, got lost because she did not have a map, did not know how to read a map, and then she left her car and went off looking for shelter. And of course she found the house of her Prince charming, deep in the woods. Please understand that authors write such stupid books, because their publishers want them to write such unrealistic books. And nowadays, there is a trend of an expectant mother, going off in the snow, – naturally, she is a single mother, – and she has to reach her destination, in the snow, and naturally on page 2, there she is, the stupid wench, stuck in the snow and the ice. Any person who has two go out in the cold weather, especially when it is snowing is going to get stuck 88% of the time and this silly female is going to die of exposure/hypothermia. But this being an utterly brainless B grade novel, she gets out of her car and staggers out, only to faint at the door of a multimillionaire Sheriff/cowboy/business tycoon/Arab Prince with American mother/tall dark and handsome and single or European royalty who is really going to be thrilled at the thought of marrying a single mother, who had a temporary relationship or one night stand with her boss/punk boyfriend/live in partner and bringing up somebody else’s baby, just because the mother is such a brainless but bosomy babe. And he is going to take her in, and she is going to have her baby in that cabin, without the help of a doctor, because all the lines are down, and both of them are going to live happily ever after. It says so on page 186, just before The End. Excuse me while I take some time out to gag. So, this book is for all of those who have to go out in the cold, willy-nilly, and not only are this good survival tactics, for the time when we are going to suffer from the nuclear winter, but also it is a complete guide of what you, man or woman, should have in your vehicle, when you are going out in hostile terrain. You may also find some real-life experiences, based on sometimes funny sometimes grim incidents, in a very interesting life, in the midst of a very outdoorsy type active family. You may find yourself a bit perplexed at these experiences but then they took place in other times, other climes and other lands. But they are real-life experiences and could happen to anybody.
