Overview

A hands-on, practical survival guide from retired Navy SEAL Clint Emerson-adapted for civilians from actual special forces operations-to eluding pursuers, evading capture, and surviving any dangerous situation.

In today's increasingly dangerous world, threats to your personal safety are everywhere. From acts of terror to mass shootings, and from the unseen (and sometimes virtual) matrix of everyday crime, danger is no longer confined to dark alleys or unstable regions. Potentially life-threatening circumstances can arise anywhere, anytime, and Clint Emerson-former Navy SEAL-wants you to be prepared.

100 Deadly Skills contains proven self-defense skills, evasion tactics, and immobilizing maneuvers-modified from the world of black ops-to help you take action in numerous "worst case" scenarios from escaping a locked trunk, to making an improvised Taser, to tricking facial recognition software. With easy-to-understand instructions and illustrations, Emerson outlines in detail many life-saving strategies and teaches you how to think and act like a member of the special forces.

This complete course in survival teaches you how to prevent tracking, evade a kidnapping, elude an active shooter, rappel down the side of a building, immobilize a bad guy, protect yourself against cyber-criminals, and much more-all using low-tech to "no-tech" methods. Clear, detailed, and presented in an easy-to-understand and execute format, 100 Deadly Skills is an invaluable resource. Because let's face it, when danger is imminent, you don't have time for complicated instructions.

Editorial Reviews

The New York Times Book Review - Molly Young

Tradecraft is a scintillating topic, and it's hard not to get high on Emerson's supply, even if the efficacy of his advice is impossible to verify…100 Deadly Skills turns the task at hand—transforming oneself into a human risk-management tool—into gleeful entertainment.

Brandon Webb

Library Journal

11/01/2015
Hansen, a former Navy SEAL who now runs the appropriately named Escape the Wolf security consulting form, offers his catalog of survival tactics that are based on his being what the SEALs dub a "Violent Nomad"—someone who is creatively adept at confronting any predator or crisis. His skills, including "Defeat a Padlock," "Escape from an Ambush," and even "Dispose of a Dead Body," are described in facing pages of text and graphical illustration in a manner reminiscent of the popular "Worst Case Scenario" series. A glossary and references list are provided. VERDICT Emerson offers a solid (if scary) addition to the survival guide collections.
