Review: Wall-to-Wall Useful Info for Everyone! - This is the absolute best preparedness book, ever, for average people in urban, suburban and rural areas. I've been following Lisa Bedford's "SurvivalMom" blog for a couple of years, pre-ordered this book and devoured it after it arrived. The comprehensive and well-organized guidance can take a person from zero preparedness to eclipsing 95% of the population with just one trip to the grocery store and a couple hours shopping on the Internet. Today I'm ordering copies for my sister and a couple friends who live near the Cascadia Subduction Zone in the Pacific Northwest and recommending on Facebook for everyone else. Really terrific contribution to promoting and facilitating preparedness. This book is obviously a project of an exceptionally detailed-oriented person who has devoted years to assembling the latest, most useful information in an accessible, efficient manner. The author also helpfully relates her personal experiences in going from a mom focused on getting her family through normal everyday life to one steeped in emergency preparedness scenarios and practical strategies for persevering (comfortably, if possible) through events ranging from routine power outages to being stranded on the road as well as longer-term situations. She also does not shy away from matters usually associated with survivalists -- such as the need to not just be able to feed and shelter but also to be prepared to defend oneself and family. The Survival Mom book coupled with wilderness survival knowledge would put someone way ahead of the game (she briefly touches on some wilderness skills -- like fire-starters -- but does not, for instance, tell how to build a teepee, trap game or do other hard-core wilderness skills -- there are plenty of other books on those subjects). In sum, this book is a great value and a keeper.
Review: This is a fantastic, comprehensive and useful book! - I loved this book. I can easily see myself referring back to it as my family begins our own journey in preparing for disasters (natural and/or man-made). I have purchased perhaps a dozen prepping and self-sustaining books and this is by far the best. I enjoy the fact that it is broken down into sensible and realistically useful chapters i.e. water, sanitation, food storage and safety. I enjoy that this book makes sense to me. I try to approach books such as these knowing that I am a novice and some of the suggestions will not be for me and my family and some of the ideas will not make sense to me. However with this book - it almost feels like the author is an old friend and knows what my next question is going to be. I loved the fact that she does in fact talk about how to make your own commode and how to get younger children involved in the preparations. The advice was clear and concise to me. In fact, I was watching a show on cable and they were talking about a 'survival during catastrophe' situation and I said to myself: the five main destroyers of food stocks are: humidity, oxygen, heat, light and pests. This came straight from the book! I did not even realize that I was learning from the book enough to subconsciously recite details like this while I was absentmindedly watching television. There are recipes in here that I am actually eager to try out. I think the best part of this book was the end of the chapter checklists and planning steps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought one for Me, then bought another for a friend!
*by S***S on September 15, 2012*

I saw this book online as a recommendation on a survivalist blog. I ADORE how this book isn't doomsday and freakout, but gives real life ordeals that may cause you to need to be a survivalist! It takes things down a notch and doesn't make it look like I'm reading the next lock down compounds notes. There are real life situations and real life ideas for how to prep and make it easy and help you to not feel like a total freak. I've been laughed at over and over because I've stored food and stockpiled items to use without power for YEARS. I grew up in a place where the power could be out for weeks~ and it was only 7 miles from the nearest town, 13 miles from the nearest city. I like knowing survival things. I like having best case and worst case scenarios laid out before me. I like knowing that I have the skills to keep my family safe, warm, fed and full of clean water. This is a must have book for ANY survivalist, or someone thinking about starting a good sized pantry. It made me think about things I otherwise wouldn't. LOVE THIS BOOK!!!! I read it, and then had to buy one for a friend of mine.
