Go the Distance: the British Paratrooper's guide (an excellent fitness guide)
For training, I don't have much experience but I benefitted from The CMP's "Small Arms Firing School" for handguns. Fundamental oriented and affordable.
I have numerous recommendations, but if I only had one suggestion it would be, When Violence is the Answer by Tim Larkin. Great book for understanding violence and when it is necessary for self-defense.
Holy CRAP! "When Violence Is The Answer" is a MUST READ! I bought it today, and I bought several other copies for those whom I am responsible for training. We're moving forward! Thanks for the recommendation, Timothy!
Noah, is there any way that you could provide a link for your recommendations? It seems that both of your recommendations are out of print or only available as a literal paper handout from Amazon.
In lieu of that, do you also have any alternatives that are in print? Would love to hear them.
Ah, Noah. The CMP recommendation is a class, not a book. Found a more recent copy of "Go the Distance" on Amazon. Thanks for the recommendation.
