The Martians have landed, the Zombies have attacked, and now you need to bug out and live off the grid as they are using the grid to track down everyone and enslave us or worse.  While this is a little far-fetched, (The Martians are arriving next month not today), people are finding it more and more desirable to live away from society and all the issues with being interconnected to the rest of the human race.  This book is meant to give you a basic overview of how to accomplish this.  Needless to say, despite the advice given in this book, the reader is responsible for checking on any local laws and regulations that apply to them and their decision to live off the grid.
