Review: Great book for anyone who wants to be prepared for self-reliance!!! - So, where do I start? I am not a prepper. Actually, I did not even know what a prepper was until I read this book. So, you are probably wondering why I even bought it. Well, I'm getting to that point in life where I am thinking of retirement in the next ten years. I would like to find some property out of the city...away from everything. Just tired of traffic, tired of barking dogs, tired of hit and runs, tired of loud music - you get it. With living on a large plot of land, I have been keeping in mind that I need to have some things to be prepared. I'm looking at moving to Montana, and, with the thought of being snowed in a for a while, I wanted to make sure that I was prepared. I thought this book was fantastic. I hope we never need to prep for a major catastrophe, but this book provided some very good and useful knowledge. The author started off with discussing some major historical events that - if they happened in today's age or in populated areas - we could be in trouble and being prepared may mean survival. The author provided enough detail for each chapter on things to think about and some steps to take to prepare. We all need water and food to survive, having the right tools and security, and thinking about medicine and hygiene challenges. What I particularly liked is that there is a comprehensive, seven page checklist of items to have. The book covered the items that I had thought of (such as having plywood handy for windows in case you need to cover them - again, I'm thinking Montana having a window out and needing to get it covered so a bear doesn't wander in), and then touched on lots of things I hadn't thought of. The author goes into how to create potable water and the best types of seeds for growing vegetables. The checklist is very handy as something for me to start with and modify as I start to prepare for my retirement in the country (aka wilderness). Even though it may be classified as a book for prepppers, I think this book also has a lot of great information for someone who may need to think about issues, challenges, and possible problems that may be encountered if you do not have the modern conveniences that society currently offers and ways to deal with those. It is an easy read and well written. I spent one Sunday and read the entire book from cover to cover. I will definitely be reading through this again and use it as a reference too.
Review: Do you think you're prepared? - Being a child of Ronald Reagan's 1980's M.A.D. world, I grew up with an interest in post apocalyptic fiction. It was hard not to, back then. As a kid I was pretty sure the evil Soviets were just around the corner, ready to wipe us off the face of the earth. Turned out I didn't need those fall out shelter plans I ordered, back then, but those many post-apocalyptic books (Guardians, Deathlands, Traveller, The Stand... my library is filled with these) led me down a path of having an interest in prepping. Many of the prepping books I've run across over the years are geared towards surviving for a few days or months after an event like a hurricane or terrorist attack. They are books with the basic premise that life will, one day, return to normal. Jim's book, Prepper's Long-Term Survival Guide, isn't that book. It's not a book about how to construct a B.O.B. (Bug Out Bag), nor is it a book filled with checklists of what your family will need to survive a few days without power, though it does have great, comprehensive checklists. Just think longer term. Jim's book goes well beyond that, and is a overall guide to what you need to get your mind wrapped around if things never went back to normal. Imagine losing electricity, plumbing, and police forever. Prepper's Long-Term Survival Guide isn't just a reference manual, it's a change in the way you think about prepping. It envisions a bigger picture where the modern trappings of our world, electronics, instant communications, and even toilet paper are gone. The book covers topics ranging from Food Storage, Medicine, Security, and even Entertainment. The book starts you on the path of realizing what you're missing from your preps, and is a great guide to putting you on the road to fixing those issues in your longer term planning. Each chapter starts with a fictional snippet, relating to the chapter topic, from a world where the power has gone off and won't come back on. I love these. I'd love to see a fictional book from Jim based off his vast wealth of knowledge in the emergency preparedness arena. The writing is clean and crisp. Jim does a great job of breaking down complicated topics into an easily read and understood fashion. You don't have to be an expert on the covered topics in order to understand what Jim is laying out. Prepper's Long-Term Survival Guide is a great addition to any prepper Library. Just make sure you read and understand it before you need it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very, very good prepper book
*by D***Y on September 2, 2021*

Very readable with tons of helpful tips. Covers a lot of ground and does it well. My only criticism is that sometimes the writer brushes off certain topics and kind of actually contradicts what he says. He mostly talks about a living in a dystopian world and how to survive off the grid but then casually mentions using something you would not have a lot of in an end of the world life. Still, it’s a great read with some great advice on being self sufficient. It’ll be a book I’ll pull down and read every so often. We’ll worth buying
