Review Summary: Boobytraps for the well armed |

Details: This is a DoD publication that assumes you have access to military munitions. If you don't have access to C-4, RDX, Claymores, satchel charges and the like, it will be hard to make full use of this book. If you don't have mil-grade explosives, study some chemestry and buy a book like "Improvised Munitions".
That said, it gives ideas on how to make use of various situations, e.g in buildings, roads, forests, etc. to slow and demoralize an enemy. |

Review Summary: Booby Traps |

Details: It was what I expected but a little dated 1969 but a good basic book on IEDs, things that went Boom in 1969 still go Boom in 2008. Good basic cookbook for teaching the basics of IEDs to a novice audience concerned with basic detecting, deterrence, and bomb searches. It was worth the price. |

Review Summary: Great to have, with Halloween coming up! |

Details: Halloween's usually such a drag every year, with all those little monsters ringing the doorbell and playing pranks. Ever find yourself wishing they'd just stay out of your damn yard? Oh, sure, I've got a BB gun, but it's so hard to hit their piggy little eyes in the darkness. Stronger measures are called for.
I'll have some surprises waiting for 'em this year, boy! Oh, yeah. |

Review Summary: A review for the curious |

Details: I bought this book solely because I am the curious type. I found it interesting in its presentation of so many ways to hurt people, but not necessarily useful in actually duplicating the traps. This is probably one of those books used to back up whatever an instructor is trying to convey, but without the instructor some of the language is vague and some of the illustrations are less than clear. I don't think there is much danger of an untrained person actually building most of those contraptions, so fear not America. You're still safe from me. |
