Outskirts Press Releaes New Book, "Stay Alert, Stay Alive: Criminals Reveal Their Secrets," by Michael P.S. Williams

Duluth, GA, August 04, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Stay Alert, Stay Alive begins with a quick Street Smarts IQ Test, and then focuses on how we can train ourselves to be both street and driving smart. It shows how we can protect ourselves at the ATM machine, what to do if someone tries to rob us, how to protect ourselves when waiting for or riding on buses and subways, how to survive if we are carjacked, and how to avoid the “bump and rob.”

Williams then takes us into the home arena, and explains how best to create a safe environment, no matter if we live in the city or have convinced ourselves that country living poses no risks. He looks at the responses people have to burglars, and shows how we can better safeguard our homes, and even our livestock, through simple, inexpensive measures. He also talks about the pros and cons of alarm systems, chemical deterrents, and guns.

For eighteen years Mike Williams served in the U.S. military and received two Bronze Stars for heroism. In 1990, he was the recipient of the General Douglas McArthur Leadership Award. For more than twenty years he has worked in the field of law enforcement in the United States and in fourteen foreign countries.
