Typically, we ignore these things and go about our daily lives, but when we go to bed at night, we have to stop and think about the potential for disaster that is constantly looming over our heads. What if the worst does happen? Are you prepared? Can you take care of your family? It can be overwhelming to think about all of the little things that you need to survive. Thankfully, this book gives you a straightforward outline to exactly what it is you do need. You will also discover there are plenty of things you can do today to help you prepare for an uncertain tomorrow. Learning how to preserve food at home is one of the most important jobs you have when it comes to planning an adequate food storage.

That is why you need this book to help you figure out how much food and water your family will need to survive a short-term crisis as well as a long-term crisis that leaves you on your own for weeks or possibly months to come.

Don't wait another day. This is a project that is going to take some time. You have to start now. Procrastination is a killer! Get busy and start planning your emergency survival cache.
