I held onto that one because it was such an excellent reference. I still occasionally go back to it for information.Docenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13573255956484552163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195077991229481958.post-69633587416901486852020-07-27T05:17:31.733-06:002020-07-27T05:17:31.733-06:00I miss hard copy books in general and I especially...I miss hard copy books in general and I especially miss all the great books that were floating around...many of which were "indie" publications which came out in the 1980's and were from small operations like Paladin Press. They were cheesy, "low budget" paperbacks covering all manner of shady topics like guerrilla warfare, making homemade machine guns and explosives, secret Kung-fu knowledge like the "touch of death" etc etc etc. In the early 1990's we also had Feral House...which I understand is still in operation. Oh the good ol days. I bought a few of those books and wish I still had them. I imagine that they are quite collectible nowdays. The only copy I have is "CIA Black Book of Improvised Munitions Vol. 3" from Desert Publications. IIRC there was a HAM and DX related catalog with dozens of titles. It was out of Commack, NY and run by radio guru Tom Kneitel or someone like that.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14779970961017760314noreply@blogger.com
