I am a prepper. I love what I do and I do what I love. I received this book as a gift for my birthday. Why, I don't know. It is basically written from a tree hugger's point of view and sugar coats very serious situations with the warm and fuzzies. Some of the suggestions offered in this book for "survival" will get you killed very quickly in an emergency or real life situation.I don't know the author's background, but it does not appear to be based on any real time survival skills,i.e.ex-military/police training, fire starting, shelter,food/water or weapons training. There is nothing in the book on personal defense with a weapon.Some examples of the book's content: P.52."A Glass of Wine" -"Sometimes you just have to take a break from surviving and have a glass of wine." (will you be drinking this out of a metal canteen cup?) P.117 "How to Wash Your Hands" Two (2) pages of the necessity of washing your hands with soap and water. REALLY ??? P.162. "Traveling Sensibly" " Plan good music and othe entertainment and...remember to bring snacks and water for everyone" Again, REALLY????? Where does this lady think she is going, on a class trip???? The book's cover is very misleading also, as the reader is told that the book will help them prepare for the end of the world as we know it. If you are hoping to find that answer in this book, you will be very disappointed. Most of the contents of this book points to common sense ideas. Something that is sorely lacking in our society. It might appeal to housewives or nail biting corporate pinheads, but this is definitely NOT a prepper pocket companion. It almost reads like a Automobile Association of America's travel guide. If you are a serious prepper who is looking for a source of information based on real survival skills, this book is just a waste of paper. But then again, you could use the paper to start a fire in your hobo stove. :)

As someone who knew nothing about prepping or organizing anything to prepare for a disaster, this book was a really great way to get started. There's plenty of information about making emergency plans, how much food and water to store, how to cook without the usual appliances, how to evacuate. It talks about how to prepare for different disasters and has resources for learning more. I definitely feel more prepared and ready with information I gained from this book.

This book's title and subtitle are very misleading. The book offers almost no useful information on how to prepare for any serious disaster. The book is all fluff and no stuff. There are much better books out there if you want to know more about general emergency preparedness or real prepping.
