About this product

Product Information

Are you prepared for a hurricane that turns your home into rubble? An earthquake that leaves you and your family without shelter, food, or water? A flood that makes your home unlivable? Most people don't want to think about those things until it's too late. Ted Wright, who came of age in London during the Blitz of World War II, has extensive experience dealing with natural and man made disasters. He knows most problems occur after the disaster, not during it, and tells how to plan beforehand to enhance the chances of surviving the aftermath. This book covers a variety of possible disasters and considers almost any place one might happen to be when it strikes. In all cases, advance planning combined with relatively inexpensive preparations will greatly enhance your chances of survival, whether you are caught at home (including mobile homes and condos), at work, at school, or on the road. It even has a special distaster plan that elementary, juniour high, or high schools should not be without. With dozens of drawings and ideas, including food torpedoes, quake-resistant shelters, medicine chests, and water-storage trenches, this survival manual will be a life-saver for anyone caught in a major disaster.

    If you live in earthquake-prone areas, buy this book

    This is a good book and fully prepares the reader for earthquake-related events. The blurb I'd read indicated it'd also help for other disasters but alas. IF you live in earthquake-prone areas, buy this book. The author is knowledgeable and has had decades of experience.

    Great resource!

    When I went to look for a book on family safety and disaster preparedness, I found this amongst a stack of others and was overwhelmed. I saw the back of this book and read the reviews and thought, I can do this. I bought this book because Mr. Wright made the challenge of preparing my family for anything that may happen in Mother Nature's world much more simple than I thought it could be. While is sometimes has a light tone, it is full of common sense and simple procedures. It has certainly helped my family.
