Unlike a lot of books in this field - (Food Security for the Faint of Heart) ISN'T a hysterical threatening account of how we are doomed to huddle in caves clutching a last lone can of spam as the zombie hordes overwhelm the world. It's a calm, lighthearted, but well written manual for dealing with the simple fact that, well, crap happens.

The world is too full of easily hysterical people who panic when the rain falls. Buy this book and avoid the herds of people who only remember AFTER the hurricane is sighted that they must, right now, this minutes, go to the store and buy water.

When even the government is telling folks that they need to be able to manage for a few weeks (or months) in times of crisis - this is a great book to start walking you through the process of preparing. Preparing for what?

Life.

And this book proves it doesn't have to be any more dramatic than that.

From Amazon.com Reviews

If any book was ever published at the right moment, it's [Food Security for the Faint of Heart].  Rising food prices - and in more and more parts of the world rising food scarcity - trigger our most primal fears.  Robin Wheeler's book will calm you down and make your eating life simultaneously cheaper, healthier, and more elegant.

I bought this for my husband. He loved it. I read it and enjoyed it as well. It's a great little book to help anyone who is looking to be a little more in control of their food sources. From Amazon Reviews
