3 out of 5 stars Booby Traps   August 3, 2008
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.


5 out of 5 stars Great to have, with Halloween coming up!   July 30, 2007
 2 out of 5 found this review helpful

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.

3 out of 5 stars A review for the curious   March 12, 2007
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

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.


3 out of 5 stars Fair treatment   October 17, 2006
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This book seems to concentrate more on the use of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) rather than the classic non-explosive traps. I had hoped more for the non-IED coverage but it is still an interesting collection with plenty of pictures to help illustrate the devices described.
