I was reading some posts on Facebook and came across a few books that I wanted to look into further. The books were all about survival and staying mentally and physically prepared for whatever may come.

When we think of survival we tend to think of natural or man-made disasters, but anyone who has served in the military will tell you it’s important to be mentally and physically prepared for battle.

From what I’ve read so far, these books seem like they would be helpful in my quest to learn how to survive in the event of a zombie apocalypse (or when cell phones stop working).

Here's a list of recommended books about Survivor, with reviews from avid readers like me and you.

Prepping 101: 40 Steps You Can Take to Be Prepared: Protect Your Family, Prepare for Weather Disasters, and Be Ready and Resilient when Emergencies Arise, by Kathy Harrison

Kathy Harrison has written an excellent and very readable book on how to prepare your family for community disasters. But she also shows you how to plan so that you are prepared for personal disasters as well.

This book is a comprehensive guide to preparing for disasters in all areas of the country. The author has combined her background in health care, emergency response work, and numerous years in the field with her present-day role as an educator. She covers everything from the basics of planning (what do you take) to how to work with government agencies or when you are on your own.

START PREPPING!: GET PREPARED—FOR LIFE: A 10-Step Path to Emergency Preparedness So You Can Survive Any Disaster, by Tim Young

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is new to "Emergency Preparedness" or wants to make their current "Preparedness" more effective (or simply wants to take a good hard look at what they are doing and make sure it is right for them).

This is a great book for anyone who wants to get prepared for any disaster, and it is especially great for people who want to get started but don't know where to start. The author has a smart and practical approach to emergency preparation. This book has everything you need - all the details you need to be prepared. And it is written in an easy and understandable way.

When the Grid Goes Down: Disaster Preparations and Survival Gear For Making Your Home Self-Reliant, by Tony Nester

Tony Nester is a subject matter expert on emergency preparedness. This book provides a comprehensive overview of all the elements necessary for building a self-reliant home. I use this as my go-to reference book when planning my own family's emergency preparedness plan.

I could not put the book down. It is a no BS, realistic guide to all those essential things you should be doing to make your home as self-reliant as possible. Tony's writing style is engaging and easy to read, and he tells it like it is. I like how he doesn't shy away from controversial topics, such as which guns and ammo are best, and what guns and ammo you should avoid buying. He also has a great chapter on gardening that will help anyone who
