Did you know that there are 104 functioning nuclear reactors in the USA (as of this writing), and did you know that nearly 1 out of every 3 people in the U.S. live within 50 miles of at least one of them?
If you do live within 50 miles, you need to know that in an emergency meltdown situation, people as far away as 50 miles may be asked to evacuate. The danger here is with radiation poisoning, and if a power plant leaks enough of a radiation cloud and you are affected by it, it can be a very ugly way to spend your last days on Earth!
This book is separated into two parts:
1) an entertaining fictional short story, and
2) a Bug Out Bag guide.
The fictional short story is about a family of four (and their cat and dog), who find themselves awakened in the middle of the night by the emergency sirens of a close-by nuclear power plant. Their adventure portrays several scary scenarios that a nuclear power plant emergency can inflict on your life - including the fact that you could actually become homeless in the blink of an eye (or even worse, if the nuclear plant's radiation cloud actually catches up with you!).
Would you be prepared if disaster woke you up in the middle of the night?
Do you actually even know if there is a nuclear power plant in the area that could affect you?
You may find that you are in an unsafe area in such a situation, and didn't even know it!
In a disaster situation (which doesn't necessarily have to be just a nuclear disaster, but that is the focus of this particular book), you may need to evacuate your home, and you will need to be able to do it QUICKLY. That means preparing a "Bug Out Bag" (or B.O.B) to have on the ready for you and your family to pick up and go, and you need to start preparing it as soon as possible after reading this book.
It needs to be pre-prepared with all of the essentials needed to live for a minimum of 72 hours (possibly longer - and possibly even in the wilderness), as quickly as possible, so that when an emergency hits, you can grab your family, get in the car (if you are lucky enough to be able to use one) and GO.
That is what the second part of this book covers - what a Bug Out Bag is, why you need one, and what to put in it to give yourself the best chance for comfort and survival.
This book was written to be both entertaining as well as informational.
So read on, and make sure YOU are one of the PREPARED!
