Preparing for the Worst - A Practical Self-Reliance Reference Guide

A solar flare has power out in 4 States and won't be coming back on for weeks.  The largest earthquake to hit the West Coast in more than a century just struck.  Roads are impassible due to an unknown explosion and your children are stuck at school.  What are you going to do?

Preparing For The Worst - A Practical Self Reliance Reference Guide is a real world companion to preparedness for one person or many.  Whether you have little knowledge and skill, or are well prepared already- this book will inform and challenge you.  Hundreds of pages along with dozens of charts, illustrations, photos and challenge exercises will guide you along the way to self-reliance and emergency readiness.  From water treatment to evacuating on foot, from building a solar food dehydrator to blending into a hostile crowd- this book will help you.

The text draws upon a cross section of scholarly sources, government documents and actual field testing to provide a usable and easily understandable reference that also combines several philosophies and approaches to preparedness, and survival to create a framework that can be applied to multiple situations.

Preparing For The Worst is easy to follow and intuitive- separated into two parts, Basic Preparation and When Disaster Strikes. The first concentrates on being proactive in learning and preparing while the second part applies good planning and philosophy to a potential disaster during and after.
