"Then I found out about this book by Cleckner that was published in January 2016."

"The stories kept your interest and bring home what happens when you are involved in discharging your firearm in defense of your self or family."
"Mr Ayoob uses an amazing combination of erudite prose with occasional street parlance to make clear the issues involved in the use of deadly force to defend oneself or family."
"As an CCW license holder, this book was recommended by a lawyer giving a seminar on what to do after the shooting, and after reading this book, I have a clearer understanding of what can happen, what will happen, and how to make sure your shoot is in line with the law."
"I received this book as my annual educational item from the Armed Citizen's Legal Defense Network, which, by the way, has all of their monthly articles archived to read for free on their web site. That is not even considering the worst case scenario where out of ignorance you follow some screwed up advice you read or heard somewhere and act without justification and then do stupid things in the aftermath."
"Don't become a victim for defending yourself, read, study and prepare yourself, just as you do with your weapon."
"I also highly recommend reading Mr. Ayoob's book "In the Gravest Extreme" if you are even remotely considering carrying a concealed firearm for personal protection, Mr. Ayoob's writing style is very easy to read, and he shares enough of his personal experiences and interviews with other top-notch shooters to make his books interesting."
"Every chapter of this book is well written, and I can not recommend this book highly enough for anyone wanting to use a firearm for self defense."

Best 15-Minute Sports & Outdoors Short Reads
A North Carolina barbecue pit master tutors him in the primal magic of fire; a Chez Panisse–trained cook schools him in the art of braising; a celebrated baker teaches him how air transforms grain and water into a fragrant loaf of bread; and finally, several mad-genius “fermentos” (a tribe that includes brewers, cheese makers, and all kinds of picklers) reveal how fungi and bacteria can perform the most amazing alchemies of all. Relying upon corporations to process our food means we consume large quantities of fat, sugar, and salt; disrupt an essential link to the natural world; and weaken our relationships with family and friends. Learning to cook elevated humans from lone animals into increasingly intelligent, civilized groups, and though we spend scant time doing real cooking, we’ve become obsessed with watching people cook--a paradox that points to longing for a lost experience. An Italian-trained Iranian American teaches him the subtleties of proper cooking in pots, how to coax maximum flavor from humble vegetables, herbs, meats, and water. The harnessing of fungi and molds to ferment sauerkraut and beer and produce cheeses illuminates the fine and ever-shifting boundaries between tastiness and rot and how the human palate can be trained.

The author did explain these four fundamental processes to teach us how to prepare food for our selves and even alcoholic beverages away from industrialized processed food picked up from supermarkets. Moreover, he taught us food science along the way what is happening to our food and even what happens to us tasting and digesting food."
"bake bread, pickle vegetables, make cheese and brew beer, Michael Pollan explores the history, science, and social and cultural impacts of cooking."
"Same good writing and same focus on food, which Pollan rightly recognizes as a key part of human development and culture. He also highlights the cultural and social aspects of cooking as key elements of our human development."
"By cooking, one way or the other, those ancestors managed to do part of the work of digestion outside their body so they, like our relatives the apes/monkeys don't have to spend hours every day chewing to get the nutrients they needed from their food."
"Pollan once again displays his ability to seamlessly weave different facts and ideas together to form a powerful narrative about human's relationship to nature as bridged by the act of cooking. I also loved that he even touched on some of the political economy, ethical and social issues accompanying some of the culinary crafts."
"bought this a special request for an 8th grader book project."
"Pollan writing, with such verve and enthusiasm, and from hands on personal experience, gives a lively account of the several methods of transforming raw edibles into food---what we eat and drink."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Good book for beginning and pistol shooters who have plateaued...The best description of the process of "focusing on the front sight" that I have heard from anyone including numerous instructors and other books."
"I usually got good feedback from experts who told me to focus on a specific stance or grip… Then I ended up neglecting some other fundamental while I was fixing the first problem. The experts meant well but I just needed to do some self-evaluation of my technique with a good, easy to comprehend training guide."
"Over my 30+ years in paramilitary positions and police SERT and fugitive unit assignments with actual close quater battle shooting, I have seen many changes in shooting style and philosophy. Being an instructor myself who is always open to new ideas and means, I really like using techniques Mr. Sajnog provides to improve my shooting and instruction."
"As a moderately experienced shooter, I have made many small adjustments that have increased my marksmanship."
"Easy to read, easy to understand, easy to study, this will help beginners start with good habits and experienced shooters improve IF these principles are applied and practiced, practiced, and practiced. If you want to hit what you think you're aiming at, buy this book, read it, apply the principles, and practice, practice, practice--this author has trained some of the deadliest warriors on this planet, but even they practice."
"Reading this book will not make you a great shooter any more than reading a book about flying will make you a fighter pilot."
"It isn't about cool gear but sound techniques and never skimping out of real training."

Charley wants him stopped before he hurts another girl and she knows that she is the only one that can do it. Finding Charley is a book that shows that the strength of one person and their support system can make or break someone."
"Dylan Sloan thought he had the upper hand when it came to Charley."
"At first I was not on board with charley's "plans" and felt her friends and her was making a huge mistake but quickly came to realise I truly admired her for her courage! This was another roller coaster ride of epic proportions as Charley continues to find herself and put her "demons" to rest!"
"Cash supports and loves Charley, he is willing to put aside his feelings to help Charley do what she believes is necessary for taking Dylan down. I had this book read in one day, I had to know if Charley is successful with her plan and if her and Cash finally get their HEA. I know I have plenty of book boyfriends I love, but damn Cash is...sigh... so sexy and knows all the right things to say."
"I ended up reading all 3 books in this series so will do an all encompassing review. Very repetitive regarding how she feels about her guy which made the story a little slower than it really should be. This series was a nice surprise that had me engrossed in the story and makes me believe that Casey Peeler may be an author to keep an eye on."
