Excellent book that thoroughly outlines every aspect of preparedness. Includes detailed explanations of the concept of preparedness, ways to get prepared, and ways to get other people you care about prepared. Includes very detailed descriptions, good sources, and good advice. Great starting point for people just breaking ground in the preparedness arena, or seasoned experts who want more perspective. Highly recommended.

For those concerned about the current state of the nation and its government's self-destructive behavior, this book contains essential information and advice on how the individual can best prepare for the future.
Chapters are organized by specific topic and clearly written. The recommendations offered are sound and easy to understand. While it remains for the reader to prioritize according to his personal circumstances, this reference work helps both the person new to "prepping" and one who may have been aware and involved for years.
Mr Rawles is also the author of "Patriots" and "Survivors" which are written in the style of novels which make vividly clear the chaos we potentially face. All three books are highly recommended!

James Wesley, Rawles. Nothing but Excellent !!

Created: 15/01/10
I can't imagine this book being written any better. It's Shredder Proof. As you read it, everything is explained in great detail. You can actually see yourself following the instructions in this book. This is the sign of a great Story Teller. But, there really is no story in this book. Informative and Insightful. Indepth yet an easy read and doesn't sacrifice clarity for brevity even once. I already owned "Patriots - Surviving the Coming Collapse" so I had fore knowledge of the writters' abilities. I've read TEOTWAWKI three times and I discover something different each time. Next, I'm going to purchase the Audio Book and listen while at work and in my car. James Wesley, Rawles is a genious. Thank you Sir.

As thought provoking of a book I've read in a long time. I currently see the potential future differently, as do most in my family. I hope that events discussed never occur, but many ideas are presented that could take place from natural disasters through political decay. I would recommend this to everyone with an open mind.
