Terrorist attacks. Natural disasters. Domestic crackdowns. Economic collapse. Riots. Wars. Disease. Starvation.

What can you do when it all hits the fan? Rather than watch helplessly, Strauss decided to do something about it. And so he spent three years traveling through a country that's lost its sense of safety, equipping himself with the tools necessary to save himself and his loved ones from an uncertain future.

After Strauss noticed that things here in America may be headed downhill (9/11, Katrina, the economic meltdown), paranoia set in, and Strauss realized that a writer who freezes in fear at the site of a spider might be in deep trouble in a real emergency.

In classic Strauss style, he prepared himself by jumping head-first into the world of survivalists, billionaire asset-hiders, gun-nuts, hunters, shooters...all that good stuff. Now after spending years undergoing survival training (rural and urban), becoming a certified EMT, obtaining a second passport, learning to make his own weapons and kill his own food, the one-time soft-bellied rock journalist is ready for just about anything.

Not only is EMERGENCY a compelling read, it's also packed with information that may save your life (or at least your bank account) if and when things get really bad. Please browse inside a preview here! Take the “Will You Survive?” Facebook quiz and watch this funny video !
