Overview
The most comprehensive how-to guide for readers who want to become untraceable. Anti-tracking techniques are key to today's sought-out and necessary skills for self-preservation in hostile environments. David Diaz, retired US Army Special Forces/Marines with three decades of tracking experience, demonstrates passive defensive techniques and tactics used to maintain a low profile in order to elude and, if need be, evade the opposition through deception--in a range of natural and urban environments. His methods merge an ancient skill set with modern technology, allowing the practitioner to keep a low to non-existent profile that will allow him to avoid detection and, at the height of its performance instruction, empower him to avoid captivity or death.
