Locals Tell Of A Magic Pond

You will only be able to find this book after unlocking Joplin's 2nd Bunker (part of an another side mission) located not far off the Molly's Barn. Follow the map to the Magical pond to catch your legendary Big Bass. Don't forget a fishing tackle!

Easy to miss - this particular book is in the bathroom of the Thompson's Community Hall on a cabinet shelf. The context leads to a nearby cave that will provide you with a nice warmth bonus. Only the real Sasquatch's hunter knows what this coat is really made of...

Book is located in a House (Rural Store in Survival mode) on an opposite side of the road from the Community Hall on a counter shelf. Leads to a cave by Misty Falls Picnic Area not far from the Plane crash site. Take a lantern and explore this cave, I would recommend going Adam when passing through the icy wall.
