Just in Case

I bought three emergency preparedness books the summer before Hurricane Sandy, because my area was about due for another big hurricane season. Boy, did we get one. Of those three books, Just in Case was by far my favorite, and the one most relevant to my life. I was not a competitive survivalist. I was a mom with two tiny children, a husband skeptical about prepping, and not a lot of money to spare. Harrison made it easy for me to figure out where to begin, what to prioritize, and how to talk about the hurricane, once it was on the way, with my kids. If I could recommend only one preparedness book, it would be this one.
