About The Book

Be prepared for any disaster and put your mind at ease with this step-by-step plan for surviving natural disasters, technological and grid failures, attacks, hazards, and more including sheltering in place or evacuating as conditions dictate.

Are you prepared for a widespread electrical grid failure? What would you do if there was a sudden tornado warning? Will you be ready when disaster strikes?

In Disaster Survival 101, survival expert and bestselling author Creek Stewart cuts through the panic and fear emergency situations can create so you can ensure all safety measures are in place should you ever need them.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to understand disaster preparedness and develop a prepared mindset that will help you make important, well-informed decisions in an emergency. With detailed chapters on food storage, water sourcing, heating, power generation, first aid, and an overview of self-sufficient living so you’ll be fully prepared to shelter in place at your home. And with evacuation chapters that explain what to take, where to go, and how to get there safely you’ll be well prepared with a plan for any kind of emergency.

You’ll also find step-by-step plans that help you take action and survive when caught in the midst of more than twenty likely emergency scenarios including natural disasters, physical safety threats, technology and grid failures; and other emergencies including pandemics and nuclear, biological, and chemical threats. Organized by scenario, each entry gives an overview of the situation, a checklist of immediate actions to take to ensure safety, and checklists to assess whether to shelter-in-place or evacuate and how to successfully execute either decision.

When every moment and decision counts, you will be ready with Disaster Survival 101.
