The Black Cat Sabotage Handbook is a resistance movement artifact that mysteriously appeared in hard copy (thank you, whoever you are!) in the distro area at the 2010 Wild Roots Feral Futures eco-defense & rewilding gathering.
After more than a year and numerous requests, the Dirty Hands Collective decided to release the manual on-line, piece by piece (the manual is 136 pages long so scanning it all at once for release at places like 
ZineLibrary.info seemed unrealistic, though we had planned to compile the sections as we release them for later uploading in one file).
Then, alas, shortly after getting started scanning and uploading yesterday, and after announcing it on several anarchist websites, someone did our job for us! Many thanks to the commenter on Infoshop News who provided the link to a download of the full manual, apparently uploaded today for our (everyone’s) benefit. We’ve uploaded it here as well in hopes that the download will be faster. Please let us know if you experience any problems. Enjoy!
Black Cat Sabotage Handbook [PDF]
As far as we can tell, it has not existed anywhere else online, yet. As to the history of the document, we can uncover little other than one source that credits its authorship to Avalon, aka William Rogers, the Green Scare arrestee who committed suicide in his cell shortly after arrest. We’d like confirmation of this, one way or the other, and regardless, would like to dedicate this blog to Avalon’s spirit and memory.

Will the book be sold as a whole?
It’s somewhat old. We have one beat-up, woods & weather-worn copy, which is the one we’re scanning and posting here. We’re not sure where you can acquire a copy, but we encourage folks to print what we provide here, particularly after it’s all been released and can be compiled into a single file. Our copy seems to have origins at Left Hand Books in Boulder, CO…
Ah okay, im only seeing page 4+, did you guys all ready post 1-3? And if so where can i find it on the website.
Alex, we deleted a post and some pages from the first post, because someone uploaded the entire book, which we promptly downloaded and uploaded to the site ourselves. This about page and the main page post(s) have now been updated to reflect that. Enjoy!
Oh wow! thank you very much. Ill print many copies to distribute among the public here
. Big help!
