A step-by-step, don’t-overlook-anything workbook of DIY projects that prepare home and family for any life-threatening catastrophe.

For days the unrelenting storm pounds the city, downing trees, flooding streets, knocking out power. Thousands are stranded with no hope of help or rescue. Only a few prepared citizens are able to ride out the storm in safety. The Prepper’s Workbook lays out exactly how to plan, prepare, and survive any natural or man-made disaster, taking readers from average unprepared Joes to prepper masters. The book’s one-of-a-kind, hands-on format allows readers to break down each aspect of prepping into simple, can’t-fail steps. Since every family is different, The Prepper’s Workbook provides a fill-in-the-blank assessment that provides a straight-forward answer specifically tailored to each individual reader. Then the author details the best way to address those specific needs. With The Prepper’s Workbook even complex projects can be tackled piece by piece over many weekends until they are finished, including building safe and secure food storage in a basement or decking out an attic with proper medical supplies for treating everything from small cuts to broken bones. The book even includes fun activities to help prepping families construct evacuation and emergency procedures, as well as home defense drills for adults.

Features:

•Checklists to stock up on life-saving survival supplies

•Projects to fortify your home from the elements

•Maps to pre-plan your bug-out and evacuation routes

•Blueprints to prepare your home’s defenses in case of societal collapse

•Forms to keep personal information on each family member organized
