Unbelievably Helpful !

There is a lot of information in this book. The information it has provided my family and friends has been indespensible. We have referred to this book countless times for a variety of reasons. It has helped us in gathering and organizing important documents and helped us in developing a family plan for emergencies (we have hurricanes here). Everyone knows what to do in the event of an emergency, particularly in situations where we may not be together. We established where to go and how to stay in contact with each other - especially useful when phones may be out. We have given books as presents and I understand that it can be used in fund raisers. Man I wish some organizations would sell something like this - something that is actually useful ! Everyone should have a copy of "It's a Disaster"

Most of what you need to know to prepare for & following a diaster

I have a copy of this book in my disaster "GO" bag & car glove compartment. As a retired emergency manager, I was so impressed with this book, that I ordered 250-copies for employees, prior to my retirement. This book, Red Cross 1st aid & preparedness materials, & "Chronicals of Katrina", gives the best information regarding how to prepare for disasters, & additionally, necessary information on how to begin the road to recovery, post-disaster. Many Red Cross materials are free, & the 2-books mentioned, offer the best value for the information you need to prepare, respond & recover from a disaster. susanf

Prepare to Survive any Disaster!

This is an outstanding guide. It brings together emergency preparedness and immediate action. Bill and Janet have painstakingly researched all facets of the most likely injuries to occur in a disaster situation. This is a must have resource guide because we know that in a major disaster situation local emegency services are beyond overtaxed and help may not show for hours or days. The second half of the book on preparedness steps are divided by specific types of disasters - hurricane, earthquake, etc. The guides, information, and just plain common sense solutions will save lives. I wish I'd had this book during Hurricane Fran in North Carolina and Hurricane Georges in Puerto Rico. With my flashlight, NOAA radio, canned food, and "It's a Disaster" book, I'll be ready for the next one. Buy one for yourself and one for everybody you care about.
