Or if your family had to quickly evacuate the area? Kathy Harrison shows you how to set up a simple home system--covering food storage, alternative heating sources, toiletries and clothing,pet supplies, emergency communication plans, and more--that will allow your household to survive comfortably for several days, or longer, with no outside services at all.

A great book to get one thinking about preparedness. Easy to read layout and casual writing style makes it so you can imagine how it applies to your own life. Doesn't give super detailed explanations for everything, more of a book to get you thinking.
