The Lost Ways Review

Essentially, The Lost Ways is a massive COLLECTION of knowledge by EXPERTS in their various fields about The Lost methods of our GREAT Grandparent and how THEY survived ‘back in the way, for MONTHS at a time – without a ‘bug out bag’ or EDC bag or any of the ‘luxuries’ that we have today. .

Keep in mind, they had…no electrical power, no refrigerators, no Internet, no computers, no TV, no hyperactive law enforcement, and no Safeway or Walmart. 

They got things done or else we wouldn’t be here! THIS is why The Lost Ways Book is so important!

In The Lost Ways, Claude unearths a long-forgotten secret that helped our ancestors survive famines, wars, economic crises, diseases, droughts, and anything else life threw at them… a secret that will help you do the same for your loved ones when America crumbles into the ground.

He also teaches you three old but valuable lessons that will ensure your children will be well fed when others are rummaging through garbage bins.

The Lost Ways Book

The Lost Way Book Author: Claude Davis

Claude Davis, the Author

The Lost Ways was written by Claude Davis, who is a survival expert and prepper with over 30 years of experience in this field.

He’s also the man, myth and legend behind the popular Survival Site, AskAPrepper.com, which he founded in 2015 and quickly grew it to popular status with the survival community.

A few of his more recent articles I really enjoyed:

Claude Davis, Ask a Prepper

  • How to Make Amish Sweet Bread
  • 13 Ways To Keep Your House Cool In The Summer

Honestly, The Lost Ways is probably one of the, if not THE most comprehensive Survival Guide on the market today.  It doesn’t just consist of Claude’s own expertise, but that of MANY top survival experts in their field.

If you’re TRULY looking to take your survival and prepping skills to the next level, you owe it to yourself and to your family to give the lost ways a read!

If for some reason you’re NOT completely satisfied with the lost ways, they offer a full 60 day (yes, 2 months) money back guarantee.

Here are a few of my FAVORITE things learned:

  • From Patrick Shelley – who earned a living in the woods for years on end will show you how to make foolproof traps. He wrote an awesome chapter about how to trap beaver and muskrat in winter just like our forefathers. When 100 hungry mouths will shoot each other over the last deer to feed their children, your family can eat the favorite food of trappers and mountain men from the 1800s.

  • From Shannon Azares you’ll learn how sailors from the XVII century preserved water in their ships for months on end, even years and how you can use this method to preserve clean water for your family cost-free.

  • From Mike Searson – who is a Firearm and Old West history expert – will show you what to do when there is no more ammo to be had, how people who wandered the West managed to hunt eight deer with six bullets, and why their supply of ammo never ran out. Remember the panic buying in the first half of 2013? That was nothing compared to what’s going to precede the collapse.

  • From Susan Morrow, an ex-science teacher and chemist, you’ll master “The Art of Poultice.” She says, “If you really explore the ingredients from which our forefathers made poultices, you’ll be totally surprised by the similarities with modern medicines.” Well…how would you feel in a crisis to be the only one from the group knowledgeable about this lost skill? When there are no more antibiotics, people will turn to you to save their ill children’s lives.

  • Lex Rooker will show you how to make a superfood with basic ingredients that you can find in any Walmart. This amazing food was invented and largely used by Native American scouts as well as early western explorers who were on their own for months at a time.
    • This nutritious food was light, compact, and high in protein, carbohydrates, and vitamins, and if done properly, it can last anywhere from a few years up to a lifetime without refrigeration! In fact, if you have this food, you don’t need anything else because a person could subsist entirely on this food, drawing on the fat for energy, the protein for strength, and the vitamins for health.

Here’s a look at the table of contents of this massive 338 page book:

Hard Copy Book

  1. Disclaimer
  2. The Most Important Thing
  3. Making Your Own Beverages: Beer to Stronger Stuff
  4. Ginger Beer: Making Soda the Old Fashioned Way

  23. How to Make a Smokehouse and Smoke Fish

As you can see – the lost ways is full of SOLID information – No fluff or ‘feel good’ stuff to fill the pages.

The Lost Ways is 338 PAGES of detailed, step-by-step information. 

The nice thing is – you can choose to get a PHYSICAL copy of the lost ways book mailed to you, a DIGITAL copy you can download it to your PC or BOTH! save it to your smart phone or even print.

Pick up your copy now at: www.TheLostWays.com

Digital and Physical Books Now Available!

But wait – there’s more! LOL

Bonus Books:

If you pick up The Lost Ways TODAY, you’ll also get access to two EXCLUSIVE reports that will NOT be available for much longer.What-Every-Survivalist-Should-Grow-in-His-Backyard-f2

There is an old saying that our great-grandparents used to know:

“Once in life you need a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman, and a preacher, but every day, three times a day, you need a FARMER.”

So the first report you’ll get with The Lost Ways is What Every Survivalist Should Grow in His Backyard. This special report contains the most nutritious and toughest plants that you should start growing so you’ll never run out of food. These plants are reliable in the worst possible conditions, including drought, flooding, or light deprivation…and you’ll also find instructions on how to plant, grow, harvest, and STORE them.

Another old saying people used to say is:

“For every minute you spent organizing, an hour is earned.”

So the second report that you’ll get is An Step-by-Step Guide to BCan-Rotator-System-4uilding Your Own Can Rotation System that can hold at least 700 cans of different sizes. You will never have to look at 50 cans for expiration dates, and you’ll never need to throw away cans again because they’ve spoiled.

A can rotator is not only a time saver but also a money saver. The mechanism is very simple. Whenever you buy new cans, you insert them in the upper shelf. The cans will automatically roll down, and they will be the last in the row. When you pick them up, you do so from the shelf below, so you will always pick the can that you bought first and therefore with the closest expiration date.

Cool and efficient! The one that you’ve just seen on the cover was built with only $95. Pretty cheap if you think that a similar rotator costs $420 on Amazon and holds only 450 cans. And theirs aren’t even that cool!

My ‘The Lost Ways Book’ Review

Anyways, as you can NO DOUBT see by the MASSIVE amount of knowledge you’ll be learning here,I have no choice but to give the lost ways a full 10 out of 10.  This is an AMAZING book, and now one of my top 3 resources for survival.

It’s hard to give this book a proper REVIEW as it’s so massive, but I will say that the information contained within is unlike ANYTHING I’ve ever seen heard or read before.  It’s easily my top Survival Book for 2016 – and the knowledge contained within is worth 100x the cost of the lost ways itself.

  • YES – it takes time to read The Lost Ways.
  • YES – it takes time to learn these skills
  • YES – it takes time to practice these skills
  • BUT – how much happier will you be KNOWING that you and your family and loved ones will be better off when The SHTF.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but nothing just falls from the sky. GOD HELPS YOU, but He does not lay it on your table. You have to work hard and do things yourself! As long as you are aware of this, your destiny rests solely on you and your willpower. You can truly change things! And you can do a lot more than you think you can!

My Recommendation is to pick up The Lost Ways NOW – BUT don’t just let it gather dust.  Study it, PRACTICE what you learn and you WILL be ready when the time comes to learn this knowledge!

Pick up your copy now at: www.TheLostWays.com

Digital and Physical Books Now Available!

Having said that, I’ll close with MY personal favorite Bible Verse:

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. – Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV Version, I love King James, but this is just easier LOL)

Important:  I DO get a small referral fee if you do purchase via my link.  If you found this review useful, I’d GREATLY appreciate you purchasing via my link here: www.TheLostWays.com.

If you’re on their “buy now” page, please do ME the favor of closing that page and purchasing through my link – i’d greatly appreciate that!

Thanks, and God Bless!

    It sure sounds like the info in this so called “book” presentation is very worthwhile. But why is it not also available in hard copy? Something here doesn’t add up. If I only have it available in an electronic format, does that not then automatically make all this great info unavailable during a SHTF situation? It sounds like the author has not yet realistically put himself into how it was 150 years ago.

    Call me old fashioned but I grew up on a secluded farm without electricity. I am a 79 year old grandfather and yes, I do now have electricity, a computer, a slow printer and lots of modern conveniences.

    I hope Claude finishes up his very welcome project by making it available in hard copy at a decent increase in price. Then I will gladly buy one copy for myself and a bunch for the grandkids. They need to hear it from someone besides this Grandpa!

      They sold out of the original batch of hard copies – they ARE working on getting more done as there is high demand for it obviously.

      I’d still recommend picking it up for now so you can study it, it’s pretty good advice even WITHOUT a hard copy for now.

      It’s great information, but I do agree they need to offer a physical book.

      I happen to know they spent alot of time and resources putting this guide together so even for a digital copy it’s worth MUCH more than they’re asking.

      Having said that, I’m trying to find out MYSELF when a physical copy will become available 🙂

    “The Lost Ways” sounds like a good book and I would like to buy a copy.

    Is it sold at the Barnes & Nobles Book Store?

    Otherwise, can it be purchased by telephone and using one’s credit card rather than over the Internet – or by mailing a personal check?

    Thank you,
    Carmen Moe

      Hi Carmen, it’s available online only – not in stores (yet).

      It’s 100% Safe to purchase, they use clickbank for their payment processor and offer a 60 day money back guarantee. I’ve never had a problem with clickbank in the 10 years or so I’ve been working with them personally.

      Hope this helps! 🙂

        If you can’t find anything there, go back to the Lost Ways Website, click the ‘contact’ link on the bottom of that page and you’ll be able to send them a direct email. 🙂

      no, I was referring to the review of “the lost ways” on their Facebook page it claims there is a link to “the lost ways” in PDF format, it is NOT a PDF document download link, it refers you to a page to buy 3 more books, in addition to “the lost ways” book, in order to sweeten what they refer to as the handshake 100% money back guarantee. (on a FREE PDF download link, wow! so generous of them) ‘sarcasm’

      I received all of your PDF downloads instantly via email as you described, sorry for the confusion

      and thank you for those very valuable PDF documents you provided, I am sure they will prove to be very helpful

      peace,

    Keep in mind it DID take money to travel around, meet the people that helped create the book, design the website, print the book etc.

    I would imagine he’s NOT making alot of money from the $37 you’re paying for this – and trust me on this, the knowledge inside is worth well more than that tiny amount.

    sounds like this book would fit in with how i think already. i’m learning to be an iron age tailor and will soon be weaving my own cloth. i know enough about bladesmithing that i can produce a well built and serviceable knife and i’ve studied up on a lot of what this book offers. looks like it would be a great addition to my library.

      Keep in mind, this is just a review, it’s not my book nor do I own it.

      Having said that, when you check out, you’re given the option to get an ebook, a physical book shipped to you, or both.

      I’d simply contact the lost ways team and ask if they can ship you a physical copy – it should only be a few bucks more for shipping & handling. 🙂

      Good luck!
