I found this to have good info, but lacking some basic info, I.e. some pictures of some of the recommended bags would've been nice.  My EDC includes a lighter as well as a small fire rod as well as a couple of cotton balls.  When saturated with hand sanitizer or a Vaseline based lip balm they'll catch fire even when wet.  My EDC also includes 50' of 550 parachute, 50' of Gorilla tape, a couple of 55 gallon contractor strength can liners, a large bandana, a couple of emergency blankets and last but not least a USGI poncho.If one is going to carry a pistol they need at least one spare magazine for it.  If it isn't carried concealed on their person it should be carried in the bag in a holster made for that purpose, not just anywhere but easily accessible.  If one has need of it, they will need immediate access to it most of the time.  An Israeli Trauma bandage is a good EDC item to have with you too, especially if you carry a knife and pistol.None of these items weigh very much and don't take up much space, but can be extremely useful.  I know they have been to me in the past.I borrowed the book as an Amazon Prime member, but would've been extremely disappointed if I had paid $2.99 for it as short as it was.
