Americans are regularly bombarded with reports of disaster and tragedy in the daily news. Catastrophes like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, violent crimes, and terrorism are so common and routine that many of us have become numb to the stories. Without a heightened awareness, focused concern, and effective planning, we have lost the edge that can save lives. Do you know what you should do to protect your family during a disaster? Does your neighbor have the knowledge required to survive a catastrophic event? Part of the solution is rooted in common sense, but much more depends upon effectively applying learned survival skills. Americans need a helpful reference tool–a “Swiss army knife” for handling today’s threats. This book is that tool. A former U.S. Marine and Desert Storm veteran, Schaefer-Jones has experienced calamity firsthand. He is also a concerned husband and the father of three young children. While considering how he would personally handle a disastrous event close to home, he came to realize that a comprehensive “how-to” guide was not available–until now. Preparing for the Worst details best practices in antiterrorism tactics and preparing for disaster. This book is for typical American families, business travelers, corporate executive management personnel, emergency first responders, school administrators, and local government officials responsible for public safety and emergency management.
Summary: This Book is a “Must Have” for Everyone
Rating: 5
My family is the most important part of my life. I consider myself a savvy and “streetwise” mom with plenty of common sense but I learned so much from this book! The peace of mind it gives me is well worth the price, I recommend it to everybody, and I plan to buy copies as gifts for everyone I love.
The author did a wonderful job covering EVERY topic that I’m concerned about (in a non-scary way) and he wrote it in straightforward, easy-to-understand language. He’s insightful and down to earth and I am confident following all of his expert advice.
Two thumbs up!
Love,
Val, “Soccer Mom”
