I’m pretty excited to announce that James Talmage Stevens, AKA “Dr. Prepper”, has agreed to donate one copy of his book Making the Best of Basics every month, to be given away to members of the Preparedness Club!
I purchased this book years ago, and also wrote a review of it. For those who don’t want to follow the link, I had the following to say about the review:
“There are some books in our niche that cover a wide range of topics and skills that I look at as a type of prepper “handbook”. While you could, they aren’t necessarily the type of book you would sit down and read cover to cover. They are, however, the type of book you would want to have “just in case”. This is one of those books. I mean, it even has “Family Preparedness Handbook” in the title. LOL
It has something for every level of prepper, whether you’re just starting out and looking for help on what to do next, or have been prepping for years and want to see where you may have holes. This book has many preparedness check lists, charts on many different types of preparedness/survival gear as well as a lot of recipes using storage food. There is information to help you get prepared, as well as useful information if you are in a survival situation.
I own a hard copy of this book but like the idea of the PDF version as well. If I was only getting one copy, it would be a hard copy. The time you might need it is when the power is out. You could get the PDF version and print out the pages you want to have a hard copy of.
I think this is one book that should be in your prepper library and I give it 5 stars. The only drawback to this book is the price, but it is so loaded with information that I think it is worth every penny.”
