I did it! My wife just asked for a 72hr kit for her car.

Great.

Like most peolple here at ETS Survival forum I've spent dozens (hundreds???) of man hours researching, buying and testing gear and technics for survival/self sufficiency. Now, my wife is not exactly as interested in the study of the technics or as gear-centric, so I recognize that aside what we may talk about and discuss at home she will need a manual she can read throughly (now) and have nearby in case of an emergency (later); in it's absence the car kit would be just an expensive oversized paperweight.

Now the tough part. While browsing for 'survival' info in spanish the larger better organized sites I've found have great pearls of wisdom as [color:"orange"] "if you need to make fire but you don't have matches/lighter, wet some rags in gasoline and set on fire with sparks from your car battery" [/color] [color:"black"] ????!!!! [/color] (Translation by yours truly).

In view of that I'm needing a reliable up to date SURVIVAL GUIDE in Spanish (Did I mention in Spanish ) No snake-venom-sucking, car spark-fire starting outdated, dangerous stunts.

Can anyone recommend a printed guide or maybe a good ETS-quality site, is there an "El Equipado para Sobrevivir".

Anyone.

I did a google search for "sobrevivir libro" and found Vivir Y Sobrevivir En LA Naturaleza. You can buy it here . The American Red Cross has lots of online documents in many languages here. Spanish is about half way down the page. Also, the FEMA library has a lot of information, but doesn't have much in Spanish. I hope this helps.

As already mentioned the AMRC and FEMA have some information in Spanish. The CERT guide in Spanish at the bottom of the page:

Thanks for the input. There IS a lot of info in spanish available on the net its just that some of it seems rather inaccurate and some, like I quoted above, downright dangerous.

I guess I was looking for some 'Doug Ritter Certified' kind of info; plain language common sense info.

Thanks again for the links.
