| Description |
Disasters often strike without warning and leave a trail of destruction
in their wake. Yet armed with the right tools and information,
survivors can fend for themselves and get through even the toughest
circumstances. Matthew Stein's When Disaster Strikes provides a thorough, practical guide for how to prepare for and react in many of life's most unpredictable scenarios.
In this disaster-preparedness manual, he outlines the materials you'll
need—from food and water, to shelter and energy, to first-aid and
survival skills—to help you safely live through the worst.
When Disaster Strikes
covers how to find and store food, water, and clothing, as well as the
basics of installing back-up power and lights. You’ll learn how to
gather and sterilize water, build a fire, treat injuries in an
emergency, and use alternative medical sources when conventional ones
are unavailable.
Stein instructs you on the smartest responses to natural disasters—such
as fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods—how to keep warm during
winter storms, even how to protect yourself from attack or other
dangerous situations. With this comprehensive guide in hand, you can be
sure to respond quickly, correctly, and confidently when a crisis
threatens.
