Book Review - EMP: Electromagnetic Pulse

Looking for book recommendations
Hoping to open some discussion about required, good and terrible books related to the subjects of EMP survival.
The search is on-going and I have read (or I am currently reading) a few books on the topic. I have also read pretty decent books on mini-farming and raising chickens (I actually have had chickens now for 5 years).
Below are some examples of what I have read. Leave comment if there are others that you would recommend or that I should steer clear of!
A Beginner's Guide to Raised Bed Gardening by Martha Green
Back to Basics: A Complete Guide to Traditional Skills by Abigail R. Gehring
The Homesteading Guidebook - A Beginners Guide to Self Sufficient Living by Dean Deschain
Backyard Chickens Book Package: Beginner's Guide to Raising Backyard Chickens & The Backyard Chickens Breed Guide by Rashelle Johnson

The quest begins...
So, if you read the about page it pretty much sums up what this blog is about and a brief bit about myself. This first post is mostly just to add a few more details about what my goal for this blog is and who I am and what I hope to accomplish through writing in this blog.
So like I said, I grew up in the city and was never taught how to do the same things that rural folks taught their kids such as hunting, fishing, farming, and outdoor skills. Had electricity disappeared in my young adult days, I would be dead by now.
It's that simple.
Thinking about that, I have decided I need to start learning those skills because, quite frankly, with the state of the world these days and the fact that America has become a shadow of the superpower it used to be, the chances of an EMP burst above North America is probably more likely than not.
So this blog will hopefully not only help me shore up the skills necessary to survive an EMP attack by researching, documenting, sharing and practicing what I find online, while there is still electricity to do so, but also to get input from others and share knowledge.
Reading is where things start for me. I have started reading and have read a lot of books relating to off grid living, sustainability, and more recently books on EMP survival in particular. I plan on sharing what I garner from my reads and hopefully discussions on my posts will happen so that we can all benefit.
