Story Behind The Book
I decided to write this book after some friends and I where sitting around discussing what we would do if the 2012 disaster happened and how we would prepare for it. After talking about it for an hour they all told me that I should write a book about it. So I did my research and wrote this short and easy to read guide.

This interesting and detailed guidebook provides readers with step by step information on how to prepare for the worst, but more importantly, how to survive after disaster has struck. From building a bunker, to what food to stock up on, and what crops to cultivate in the aftermath; this book is most certainly an eye-opener for those who believe in being well-prepared for the unavoidable. How to Survive 2012 in Two Weeks is an interesting, and extremely informative read that not only triggers your mind into action, but leaves you in no doubt as to what must be done to protect yourself and your family in the face of imminent danger. I found this book useful, informative and engaging - I highly recommend it. -- Zaid Nasserdien</span><span class="GingerNoCheckEnd"></span>
