Thrive: Don't Just Survive The Coming Collapse

Across the United States, Americans have let their guard down, naively living in the moment, committing their absolute faith and confidence in the federal government. Somehow, they feel as though they are exempt from the rest of the world's calamities and problems. For them, the lessons taught by time and history are of little use and only apply to "someone else, somewhere else." This book is probably not going to awaken those that remain asleep to their inevitable fate. If the news and the obvious haven't already jolted them from their slumber, this book will unlikely do any better. Although the first chapter gives all the excuses typically elicited by those that would rather prepare for the next tail-gate party than for ultimately saving their very life, you will find that the rest of this book isn't full of the "why you must prepare now" jargon-not because that alarming wake-up call isn't important, but because this book is less about the "why" and more about the "how." As this book's title aptly implies, it is more about "thriving" than just "surviving." Topics covered will still include your basic survival needs, but with added enhancements, and possibly less frequently thought about approaches, making "covering the basics" seem much more manageable. This book will cover such things as survival kits specifically suited for certain purposes, easy methods of not only securing water, but making it potable, a no brainer food-storage plan, thoughtful approaches to heating and cooking, and practical considerations for personal hygiene and sanitation. This book will also include innovative lighting options, realistic alternative-power sources, creating a surefire bug-out plan, and every conceivable way to bug-out by land, air, and sea. Discussion points will touch upon the moral differences between looting and scavenging, maximizing space for apartment dwellers, taking your furry friend into consideration, and how to best communicate when the grid is likely down. Yes, with so many survival books to choose from, and so many other interesting books outside of this subject matter, you may ask yourself why you would want to invest in this particular book. Well, why don't you see for yourself? Chapter highlights have been included with this description, making it possible to see if this kind of book is right for you. Whether you decide for or against this title, may God bless you in your endeavors to protect yourself and your family come what may
