Nuclear War Survival Skills
By Cresson Kearny Forward By Dr. Edward Teller
Nuclear War Survival Skills provides instructions that have enabled untrained Americans to make high-protection-factor expedient shelters, effective air pumps to ventilate and cool shelters, the only homemakeable fallout radiation meter that is accurate and dependable, and other life-support equipment.
These instructions have been developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory civil defense researches and others over the past several years, and have been field-tested repeatedly under simulated crisis conditions.
You and your family can improve your chances of surviving during and after a nuclear attack by learning the nuclear facts and following the self-help instructions provided in this book.

Passport To Survival
By Rita Bingham and Esther Dickey
The basic premise of this book is that for everyone, even for us who live in America, the time will probably come when food and other necessities are unobtainable.
This situation may be brought about by any one of a number of causes - personal sickness or injury, unemployment, war, riot, transportation strikes, and so on.
With such a small percentage of our population engaged in farming our urban society is particularly vulnerable and any interruption in the supply of food would cause markets to empty within hours and people would be unable to acquire even the most basic foods.

Plan Not Panic By Barbara G. Salsbury
The Manual for 72-Hour Survival and Emergency Evacuation.
It only takes once for an evacuation situation to quickly disrupt your entire life, as many have discovered in the recent rash of deadly hurricanes, world-shaking earthquakes and mega-disasters that have been sweeping the world.
You must have noted as the headlines have emblazoned the news for a seemingly few, sensational seconds; disastrous events, disasters and crisis don’t make appointments before they come calling!
If you, like many others, allow your resolve to do something fade along with the headlines, perhaps there is a reason. Perhaps you, along with others don’t understand how or where to begin. We have discovered that the book "Plan … Not Panic" has the answers and solutions.
In "Plan... Not Panic", Barbara shows you step by step not only how to begin, but how to meet your individual needs in order to survive an evacuation with confidence—and even a bit of comfort.
If you think you want to purchase a commercial kit the book will guide you through the areas that will need to be personalized.
