The Flexible Bug-Out Bag: Prepper's Packing List Ideas for a Basic 72-Hour Bag and 5 Different Types of Disasters

by Mike Wallace

If you had been in the path of Hurricane Sandy, Katrina, or Andrew, would you have been ready? What about a tsunami, earthquake, flood, terrorism, or nuclear event? What if you had to "bug out," or leave your home at a moment's notice? Some people are ready for such disasters--as ready as they can be. Once thought to be for radicals, the idea of being "prepped" for disaster is coming more and more into the mainstream. This handy little book goes over the items you should pack--or at least consider for--your bug out bag. It also offers information on five specific types of disasters and how to prepare for them. A must-have in the library of any beginning prepper--and the more experienced are likely to find useful info as well.
