The author of the book, Tony Nester, is an internationally recognized expert on survival and self-reliance. He has authored four instructional books and three DVDs and provides hands-on survival courses for the military special operations community, US Marshals, NTSB, and FAA. Tony has also served as a consultant to the Discovery Channel, Travel Channel and Fox News along with being a frequent contributor to Outside Magazine.
Nester who lives in a passive solar, strawbale house, points out that, “Learning survival shouldn’t involve a fear-based approach and you won’t hear any doom and gloom rhetoric in this book. Urban survival preparation is meant to be empowering as you plan for your specific region, acquire pertinent skills and cut through the gear-hype to find out what is necessary to face a real-world emergency. This book cuts right to the chase.”
"When the Grid Goes Down" includes an overview of the six key areas of home self-reliance, specific gear and food checklists, water storage recommendations, comprehensive list of critical first-aid supplies and a list of pertinent resources for getting started. There is even a Q & A section taken from the author’s survival courses over the years.
“You won’t find any rehashed emergency checklists. Everything in the book comes from real-world applications and has been rigorously field tested over the years as well as being utilized daily in our own home,” says Nester.
