Anybody been reading any interesting /k/ related books? Could be a manual about self-defense or maybe an interesting memoir by a soldier, anything really.

I read a butt load of standards, so I don't feel like reading more at home.
If I were to read /k/ related content, it might be field manuals and so on. My bucket list of to be read is too large.

Reminds me of how the Ashida Kim ninja manuals used to be sold at the super market 'round these parts.

Like they expected somebody to buy peaches and remember that they were trying to master Monkey stealing the Peaches?

Pissed Internet Archive deleted the Paladin Press collection. Lots of gold there. But they still have a collection of Kurt Saxon's videos, American Surival Guide magazine from the 80s and 90s, as well as a collection of research papers done for FEMA in the late 70s early 80s dealing with nuclear war that I'm finding useful for research on some writing projects I may or may never actually start.

Ernst's diaries are dry, but that in my opinion makes them good "I have a few minutes" books.
Very gripping windows into the great war, though like All Quiet I wouldn't call it purely objective, though it doesn't have any message either. Ernst is just writing what happened from his perspective.

Not exactly /k/ but still an amazing story
>On January 20th, exactly two months since the sinking of the Essex, Richard Peterson declared it was his time to die. When Chase offered Peterson his daily ration of bread, he refused it, saying, "It may be of service to someone but can be of none to me." Soon after, he lost the power of speech.

Just started it, but it's pretty good so far. It tries to use Raphia as a base to figure out how the Ptolemaic army was structured from the reigns of Ptolemy I to the IV.
