內容簡介TOPWHEN THE POWER FAILS, PREPARED FAMILIES SETTLE IN, STAY WARM, AND EAT WELL. WITH CAREFUL PLANNING, ORGANIZATION, AND A DETAILED ASSESSMENT OF THE NEEDS OF EACH FAMILY MEMBER, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR EVERY HOUSEHOLD TO SURVIVE AT LEAST SEVERAL DAYS WITH NO OUTSIDE SERVICES. A SENSIBLE HOME SYSTEM WILL TAKE OVER THE WORK OF PROVIDING WARMTH, SHELTER, AND NUTRITION.

AUTHOR KATHY HARRISON GUIDES READERS THROUGH THE EMPOWERING PROCESS OF SETTING UP SUCH A HOME SYSTEM WITH HER OAR METHOD — ORGANIZE EXISTING SUPPLIES, ACQUIRE ADDITIONAL NECESSITIES, ROTATE EVERYTHING FOR FRESHNESS. HER COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE OF EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INCLUDES FOOD STORAGE, ALTERNATIVE HEATING SOURCES, PERSONAL SUPPLIES FOR EVERY FAMILY MEMBER, ENTERTAINMENT IDEAS, TOILETRY AND PROPER CLOTHING, PET SUPPLIES, EMERGENCY FAMILY COMMUNICATION PLANS, AND NEIGHBORHOOD COOPERATIVES.

IN ADDITION TO PREPARING THE HOME FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WITHOUT ELECTRICITY, HARRISON ALSO DISCUSSES EVACUATION PLANS — WHERE TO GO, HOW TO MEET UP WITH FAMILY, WHAT TO PACK, AND HOW BEST TO PROTECT ALL THAT’S BEING LEFT BEHIND. SELF-SUFFICIENCY AT HOME OR IN A TEMPORARY SAFE HAVEN TAKES AWAY MUCH OF THE FEAR AND HELPLESSNESS ASSOCIATED WITH DISASTERS. JUST IN CASE PUTS THE POWER BACK IN THE HANDS OF INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE EQUIPPED AND READY TO TAKE OVER WHEN PUBLIC SERVICES FAIL.

DISASTERS CAN STRIKE AN ENTIRE REGION OR A SINGLE UNLUCKY FAMILY. THEY CAN BE BROUGHT ON BY WEATHER (HURRICANES, TORNADOES, FLOODS, WILDFIRES, SEVERE HEAT OR COLD, LANDSLIDES) OR BY MAN (TERRORISM, ACTS OF WAR, SIMPLE HUMAN ERROR). WHATEVER THE CAUSE, THESE CATASTROPHIC EVENTS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO DISRUPT ROUTINES AND COST MONEY AND LIVES. WHY NOT BE ONE OF THE PREPARED FEW? JUST IN CASE . . .
