There are more reasons than ever before for families to adopt a preparedness lifestyle. And, for the past 37 years and 11 editions, this book has been the definitive reference book for showing people how and why!

Generations ago, preparedness was second nature – it was the natural way of life – regardless of the current or impending environmental, social or economic conditions.

But, times have evolved. Just in the last 5 years, every corner of our country has witnessed or experienced every type of natural and people-prompted disaster.

Tornados, hurricanes, floods

Death, disability or illness, job loss

Economic downturns, inflation, power failures, water main breaks

Regardless of the cause or timing, people who adopt a preparedness lifestyle do so to maintain near-normal living conditions regardless of external circumstances.
