Synopsis

Have you ever thought, "I want to get prepared, but I don't know how to start or what supplies to get", or even, "I don't have the time to do all the research, and I wish someone could help me"? If so, then this book is for you. When Things Go Boom! was written to be a no fluff guide as to what you can do today to begin getting prepared for the coming chaos or for any potential disaster. This book is chock-full of survival and preparation techniques, unique and valuable tips and supply checklists.They are broken down into practical areas such as personal defense and safety, water and filtration, food and nutrition, shelter and habitat, medical and first aid, communication and navigation, signaling and other general areas. More importantly, you are benefiting from the author's experience, research and testing of products. This allows for specific recommendations to be given about select products and manufacturers. He has done most of the research for you and only suggests products that he relies on, personally, for his own family's health and safety, saving you multiple hours of research and frustration. When Things Go Boom! not only tells you what supplies you need to be prepared, it tells you why you need them and where to get them. Howard has been prepping seriously since 2001 and knows first-hand what he is talking about. Being a military veteran, a Christian and a devout husband and father, Howard has the sole desire to help others prepare, just as he prepares for his own family. We live in an extremely fragile world right now, a world on the brink of economic, political, religious and societal collapse. Just the fact that you are reading this now, tells me that you are blatantly aware of this fact. What once was thought of as fringe thinking has now become mainstream certainty. It is coming and it is coming soon. The world will never be the same. Howard is not a man prone to paranoia or any extremist beliefs, he just sees what is coming, acknowledges what most of us already know in the depths of our being and is taking a stand for prudent preparedness. The time to prepare is not the day after disaster strikes. The time is now and, When Things Go Boom! will be the definitive book to help you get there.
