Overview

When disaster strikes, will you be ready?

The fact is no, in many cases, you probably won’t be. Not entirely, with 137-piece go-bag to hand, survival knife at your belt, and a pouch of miraculous wild herbs at the ready. And that’s okay.  Even the biggest survival superstar can—and almost certainly will—be caught unawares. The key is to know how to improvise. In this book, New York Times bestselling survival author Tim MacWelch shows you how to turn what you have into what you need.

Fortune favors the prepared . . . and learning how to innovate, improvise, and make do will prepare you for just about anything. Detailed advice and step-by-step illustrations show you how to handle natural disasters, wilderness mishaps, and total catastrophes with whatever you have to hand, from duct tape to plastic bags to acorns. Hundreds of tips for situations ranging from the common to the once in a lifetime (you hope!), including:

• Use junk food to start a camp fire.
• Harvest drinkable water from morning dew.
• Use your belt to sharpen a knife.
• Suture a wound with dental floss.
• Use a bra as a respirator

 . . . and much, much more. If you can find it in an emergency, Tim can almost certainly help you turn it into a survival tool!
