Bill Fulton is the author of
The Blood of Patriots: How I Took Down an Anti-Government Militia with Beer, Bounty Hunting, and Badassery (also with Jeanne Devon). He was raised on a ranch in Montana and from his earliest days learned how to live off the land and off the grid. He spent eight years in the Army undergoing extensive training in anti-terrorism, weapons and explosives, hazardous materials, public health and safety, emergency management, and law enforcement. After he left the Army, he owned and operated a military surplus store selling survival equipment and gear, and teaching people how to not die in the Alaskan wilderness. Today he runs his own sustainable organic farm in New England where he lives with his wife, two daughters, six goats, twenty-seven chickens, and four peacocks—one of which has an attitude problem.
Jeanne is an Alaskan adventurer, author, and entrepreneur whose landmark retail store sold merchandise that helped people enjoy the great outdoors in a state where modern-day conveniences like electrical outlets, cell service, and "fancy indoor camping" are sometimes not available. Living on the Last Frontier, she's experienced a massive volcanic eruption, hundreds of earthquakes, hurricane force winds, and power grid disruption at subzero temperatures. She's been caught on a boat that lost its propeller in the Gulf of Alaska—a hundred miles from the harbor. She has a giant freezer full of foraged wild mushrooms, berries, moose, salmon, halibut, and summer vegetables from the garden. In her other life, she's a New York Times bestselling author, a multiple national award-winning blogger, and the recipient of half a dozen Alaska Press Club awards for her writing about environmental issues, Alaska militias, and politics.
