I am looking for suggestions for preparedness books. I recently found one I like called"Emergency Preparedness the Right Way" by Howard Godfrey. This book covers food storage, water storage, water purification, bug out bags, emergency cooking excetra. But one book will not cover everything, so I am looking for others. What books would you suggest.

My favorite one is "Making the Best of Basics: Family Preparedness" by James Talmage Stevens. It's an old book that I bought at least 10 years ago but I still use it all the time. It covers food storage (what and how much to buy and how to store and use your stored food), water storage, grains, breads, sourdough, sprouting, yogurt, cheese, fuel, supplement and other great things. It's a bit out dated but most of the information is still very valuable.

I also like the "Making the best of Basics". Some of the other books that I have are "Emergency food Storage & Survival Handbook" by Peggy Layton.

Once I had some food storage and then long term food storage with beans, rice etc, I looked at it and said now what? I think the advise of "store what you eat and eat what you store if great. I have changed some of my eating habits to include more from the long term storage. Which means I needed to develop new recipes. Great books that that address this are: "I can't believe It's Food Storage" by Crystal Godrey and "Country Beans" by Rita Bingham.

Also a good websites is:

"Food Storage Made Easy" Food Storage Made Easy
