An American Famine: A Rosetta Stone for the coming collapse

By Kurt Dahl

There are a thousand books out there that will tell you "how" to prepare for collapse - but this is the ONLY book that will tell you "what" to prepare FOR.An American Famine combines the realism of our most knowledgeable pundits on sustainability along with a vivid fictional descent into chaos and anarchy. It aims to be the Rosetta Stone for those people who are concerned about our future but are unsure about the outcome - it translates their vague fears into a clear and potent picture of the danger ahead. Spanning a twenty year period from 2028 to 2048, An American Famine chronicles the collapse of our civilization with such chilling realism that the reader comes away with a severely altered view of our collective future.The full scope of this event is impossible to portray in a traditional narrative. Instead, An American Famine employs many voices, many viewpoints, and a collection of stories, in order to capture the long sweep of what looms.The book is divided into three parts: first, the pre-collapse downward spiral from 2028 to 2038; then, the short-lived spasm of extreme violence in 2038; and finally, the continued chaos in the aftermath of the collapse that covers the ten year period from 2038 to 2048.Our cultural mirror (the mass media) currently reflects the emergence of a growing apocalypse anxiety. From the the doomsday preppers, to the loftier conversations of Charlie Rose, Ted Talks, and Tom Friedman, we now hear the timid beginnings of a warning that there may actually be a collapse of civilization in the not-too-distant future.An American Famine focuses these vague and timid warnings into a frightening and complete chronicle of this horrifying future. If you have ever wondered how we could get from where we are today, to a future violent collapse of our civilization - then read this book and you will find out.
