Editorial Reviews

Review

An indispensable resource for today's wacky--and dangerous--economy. More than twenty years ago, Stevens put together Making the Best of Basics--Family Preparedness Handbook. It sold over 300,000 copies, and was aimed at the urban family and dealt with preparing for difficult times by understanding in-home food storage and all the necessary quantities, items, recipes, problems and solutions. [...] Don't Get Caught with Your Pantry Down is a nuts-and-bolts, definitive look at the elements and the processes of protecting yourself. -- The Book Reader, 1998

5.0 out of 5 stars This book covers everything!, January 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Don't Get Caught With Your Pantry Down (Paperback)
Bravo Mr. Stevens! This book has helped my wife and I decide not only what to put in our food storage, but how much of it to store. We found a local retailer in the comprehensive directory that was just a few blocks from our house, the shop owner himself was suprised that he was in it. This book outlines ways to be prepared for any emergency including the Y2K bug. Whether something drastic happens at the turn of the century or not, there are other things to be prepared for such as unemployment or financial hardships. Our family has gathered important documents such as life insurance, brokerage accounts and retirement info in the event that one of us dies. We feel more prepared to face the world, be it personal tragedy or widespread disaster because of the valuable info in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Resource Guide EVER!, April 3, 1999
By 
This review is from: Don't Get Caught With Your Pantry Down (Paperback)
James Stevens has done a fantastic job of providing information on how to FIND preparedness products and companies. Some people can buy storage food and equipment at stores appearing on every street corner, but most of us have to scratch our heads and fret and stew, wondering where to even BEGIN looking for the things we need to learn to be more self-sufficient. Thanks, James, for a wonderful resource book that makes it EASY to get prepared. Rita Bingham

This is the most comprehensive book of Preparedness Industry resources available. Each week this book becomes more valuable. This industry is growing rapidly and many major suppliers are experiencing unprecedented backorders. Before you place your first order for a preparedness product, read this book!! You have options and this book will help you make educated buying decisions.
