Book Description
Standard issue for all Starfleet Officers, this vital tool for space survival covers everything from space suit leaks and hotwiring a tri-corder to hostile alien encounters. Paying particular attention to the importance of initiative in situations where available technology is malfunctioning, The Survival Guide is broadly divided into the following sections: understanding alien technology; dealing with alien wildlife; modifying federation technology; and encountering temporal anomalies. There is information on essential Federation emergency equipment, and various extreme escape and survival scenarios are accompanied by actual accounts by legendary Starfleet heroes of their own dramatic improvisations. The whole is illustrated throughout with explanatory black & white line art illustrations, easy to follow in a crisis -- especially valuable when a reader is stranded on a downed shuttlecraft with only a com-badge and a self-sealing stem-bolt.

Book Description
This book started out as a collection of handouts that I would give to people taking classes with me. The handouts became manuals, and the manuals became a book. This is that book! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing and illustrating it. Everything contained in this book represents the knowledge, experience, and wisdom handed down to us from our ancestors. As you learn these skills and put them in to practice, you will feel an awakening in yourself that will take you back to the beginning of the dawn of mankind. It is in all of us. It may be dormant, but trust me, it’s in there. Sam
