James Wesley Rawles is the author of the novel, PATRIOTS which is all about what happens in the USA after a complete total financial meltdown. It was a very thought provocative read.

He has recently written another non-fiction book about how to survive anything, but I'm unfamiliar with it.

Here's a google search for FR postings discussing JW Rawles and his survival blog and/or books:
