The Family Preparedness Handbook

The Family Preparedness Handbook – Review & Giveaway

July 7th, 2010 – 234 Comments

family preparedness

If you were temporarily out of work, how long could you sustain yourself and your family in a near-normal manner? What if an earthquake or hurricane or bomb left your community devastated? Have you made provisions for such possibilities?

Our own government urges people to store at least a three-day supply of non-perishable food, yet many households do not have even that on hand. Having lived in an area which was subject to hurricanes, I’m used to keeping water, food, toilet paper, etc on hand. Sadly many people have not made provisions for Plan B. This book will help you be more prepared for the unexpected.

If you want the security of being able to live from your person resources for as long as needed—regardless of external conditions—Making the Best of Basics—Family Preparedness Handbook will show you how.

You can also get James Talmage Stevens’ free downloads on Itunes (Family Preparedness Guide) or listen to him live on http://www.blogtalkradio.com/doctorprepper

Mr. Thrifty and I learned so much from James Talmage Steven’s book, Making the Best of Basics, Family Preparedness Handbook, which has sold over 760,000 copies. We both feel this book is a MUST have addition to any library.

The Family Preparedness Handbook is the most comprehensive single volume ever compiled on developing a lifestyle of in-home storage and family preparedness. Stevens lays out a yearlong storage program of 15 food and nonfood categories, six of which (water, wheat and grains, dairy products, sweeteners, “cooking catalysts” like salt and oil, and sprouting seeds) are capable of sustaining life indefinitely in a no-frills diet. The other 9 categories are designated “Building Blocks,” and improve upon the basic diet and support a more routine, less Spartan existence while relying on stored supplies.

You can purchase Making the Best of Basics: Family Preparedness Handbook on Amazon.com

Or you can win a copy from us.

That’s right, you can win this valuable resource that no home should be without. This giveaway will begin on July 7, 2010, and ends on July 11, 2010 at 11:59 PM ET. You MUST leave a separate comment for each entry you wish to make. This giveaway is open to U.S. residents only, 18 years old or over, and the winner will be chosen using random.org. The winner will be contacted by email and will have 48 hours to respond. Once I have received a response from the winner’s the name of the winner will be posted here.
