I haven't been as serious about it as I should be,either, though we have done some things to get started.
A few years ago I ordered Holly Deyo's "Dare to Prepare." I think it's excellent. She and her husband are evangelical Christians, the tone of the book is great. It's not a "Rambo" style at all. It covers what to do under all emergencies, floods, fires, earthquakes, even nuclear accidents. It covers how to shelter in place or what to do and what to store in your "bugout bag" which everyone should have( We do not, yet) It also covers how to care for your pets, how to cook without electricity, how to store water, whether a freeze dryer is worth it, and so on. I even found the book a bit intimidating but I've taken a lot of advice from that book. It's in it's 4th or 5th edition, now.

Any natural or man made disaster you can think of she covers.
