ARE YOU READY FOR THE SECOND GREAT DEPRESSION?

Forecasters, analysts, and billionaire investors are now saying that it is not a matter of if, but when, the USA will be hit with the full force of the worst economic depression in its history. This Second Great Depression is expected to be far more severe and prolonged than the long, horrible, and tragic Great Depression of the 1930's.

Is your home paid off? How secure is your job? If you lost your house or apartment tomorrow, where would you go?

Traditional "prepping” philosophies tend to focus on escaping to a prepared retreat in the countryside. However, most American middle class families, even those who still have jobs, are only three or fewer missing paychecks away from financial disaster and they simply cannot afford a fixed location, rural retreat.

Prolonged unemployment has already found many former middle class families impoverished, unprepared, and living without adequate shelter and other necessities of life in one of the growing number of makeshift tent cities, or even in their cars. The need for a long-term plan to survive and keep your family intact during a massive financial crisis is stronger than ever.

PREPPING FOR THE REST OF US

This exhaustive and comprehensive work uses facts, history, and actual events as a guide to show you what to expect, and how any average family, even with a modest income, can meet these challenges in a timely manner. With a few basic preparations and some planning done now, while you still have time, anyone of any income level can weather the coming crisis. This can position you to survive, adapt, and thrive in the face of whatever the future holds.

Locusts on the Horizon is much more than simply another 'store food and ammo' prepper book. This book is built around the concept of MASH (Mobile Adaptable Sustainable Homestead). The concept of the US Army's MASH units, essentially a portable town, has been scaled down to that of a single family portable homestead which fulfills the requirements of SEMS (Six Elements of Modern Survival).

We feel that the hour is late and the need is great, so 'Locusts on the Horizon' is made available for the price of only about two or three candy bars at a supermarket checkout. We offer it for a small fraction of what a book this size would normally sell for because we feel so many families are vulnerable to what is coming.

This is the single best prepper/economic collapse survival manual that is currently on the market. If printed out, it would be 1100 pages! Each of those pages is packed full of valuable information.

Priced at less than $3, it should be purchased and read by everyone who anticipates social unrest or economic difficulties in the future.

one of the best preparedness books I've read. They take a realistic approach on what people need to have and do to survive a collapse (be it from individual unemployment to a great depression). I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because there were a few things that aren't factually correct but that was few and in-between. I look forward to implementing a lot of their suggestions.

Thought-provoking take on what a realistic "prepper" should be.

Everyone should read this book. It is chock full of very useful living frugally and surviving hardships information and lot's of relevant history supporting their recommendations. It's a big book at 11,000 pages if printed, but it is so compelling I had a hard time putting it down to manage life's daily tasks. This is not a fiction book but a how to book with lots of historical support and detailed instructions. This book has motivated me to take some proactive actions in my life.
