Making the Best of Basics: Family Preparedness Handbook
Paperback
by James Talmage Stevens34.95 27.95

Over 760,000 Copies Sold!

WindRiver Publishing is proud to distribute the new 11th edition of the world's most popular family preparedness handbook

Close your eyes for a moment and imagine what would happen if you became ill and couldn't work; or if an earthquake, hurricane, or violence left your community devastated. It happens more often than you think—and when the unexpected happens, people who are even a little prepared are much better off than those who never thought about their dependence on outside resources.

Now imagine having the resources in storage and the skills necessary to turn crisis into comfort. Imagine the peace of mind that comes with preparedness and the knowledge that you don't need to shop for weeks—and a comprehensive storage system begins to make sense.

Now in its 11th edition with over 760,000 copies sold, Making the Best of Basics: Family Preparedness Handbook is the best-known preparedness guide around. Author James Stevens describes the basics of food and resource storage (including how to use what you store!), and lays out a yearlong preparedness program covering fifteen food and nonfood categories that will sustain your family through any crisis.
