The Home Survivalist's Handbook: The must have survival guide for apartment dwellers and suburbanites alike. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781463707675)

Christopher Eastin identifies himself as "a liberated corporate slave living off-grid and writing in the mountains of Southern Colorado." He built his own cabin, grows most of his own food, generates his own power and brews his own beer... Eastin "bugged-out" from his comfortable life as an Information Technology Director a few years ago. He says, "I abandoned the rat-race!" Since then he's lived off his stored survival supplies at Bear Ridge while building up his ability to become as close to self sufficient as possible. He shares his space with three dogs Axel, Conway and Ruby as well as BoyBarb, his ill-tempered cat. He blogs daily at The Bear Ridge Trading Post where he chronicles his life off-grid in the mountains. His writings focus on issues he's encountered since leaving the corporate world for a simple, self-sustaining life. Eastin uses his true life experiences as both a city dweller and mountain survivalist as co-author of his first book, The Home Survivalist's Handbook. In this, he's tailored his real life solutions for those living in and around the cities. He is also currently working on a four-book series about survival, homesteading and off-grid living in the mountains of Colorado. The series is due out in 2015.
