The Prepper's Water Survival Guide: Harvest, Treat, and Store Your Most Vital Resource (Preppers)

I bought this book as part of a gift of two books about water harvesting and storage for prepper’s, for my father. My dad loves reading prepper’s guides and information. I picked this one for him because it targeted something he was really interested in: water. This book has so much information. It begins with a great introduction, explaining the importance of water and why we need to be so careful with it. The book contains information about why everyone needs to have an idea of a safe water supply, including non-preppers. It provides incidences in which safe water was scarce for a time. It convinced me to continue reading the book, even as a non-prepper myself! It outlines ways of storing water safely (did you know milk jugs are not a good option?) as well as harvesting the water. Most interesting to me were the chapters on purifying water and finding emergency sources of water. I found it completely fascinating and I learned so much! I highly recommend this book to anyone, especially if they are preppers or if they just find water information such as this interesting. I thought it was so useful and I feel a little better knowing about how to collect, store, and purify water!

Recently, with all this crazy stuff happening in the world, I've gotten interested in water prepping and other survival techniques in general. As I'm sure you know clean and safe drinking water is the most important thing to have in an emergency survival situation. This book covers the dangers of being without water and gives real life stories of people who have had to go days without water. Nothing inspires like death and, with the realization that could happen to you, soon you'll want to be able to prep and safely acquire drinking water on your own. This book supplies all the information you will ever need on water prepping including, but not limited to, storing water, acquiring water, and sanitation. Luther gives important and practical advice on what to do and how to do it. Can you create something to filter water that doesn't require power? With this book you can. Invest in the future, your future, and learn about water prepping now. You never know when you'll need it.

This book is a wonderful guide and helping you to store water for emergencies. And as a mother of children, it is very important to have water.

I thought this book was well written and comprehensive. It have facts and reasons and did not fill the reader with fear, but with truth and a game plan. It's not a crazy thing to plan for disaster. Not even an apocalypse, but the chance that over the course of one's life, there could be a problem with having access to clean water. I already keep two gallons of water on hand, but I need to do plan for at least a gallon a day for at least two weeks. Luther shows the reader how to accomplish this without breaking the bank. The biggest thing I took from Luther's book is to be prepared as use any resource availabe accordingly. Drinking water is obviously a big deal, buthe without water on hand for washing and sanitizing, a variety of issues can still arise, including death. Not to end on a down note, there are things in this book anyone can use daily. If you travel, make sure you have plenty of water on hand (should be obvious, but...) and one can make their own homemade electrolyte drink in a pinch! No need for Gatorade when most people already have the proper ingredients in their home!

This was a fairly small, easy-to-read guide to everything you'd need to know about water (and its uses) in both regular and challenging times. This includes details on why it's crucial, how to conserve it, how to filter it but also other related things like how to build a latrine, how to deal with different kinds of waste and trash if there's no water or garbage service, etc. This is a good handbook to reference both before and during emergencies.

This is a good, thorough look at water. It contains a lot of good ideas and information. Water is a MUST so, make sure you have it or a source readily available.

This book outlines a lot of basics and highlights the need for you to be prepared for an emergency. The author also outlines many possible solutions and gives you great advice on how to get started making your plan. However, on perhaps the most crucial aspects the book does not go into too much detail. (A step by step guide is given for making an outhouse, but no guide is given for how to make a distillation system, UV light system, etc.) The individual methods of purification are listed, which is a great starting point, but little advice is given as to how to implement them. So I'll say this book is a great starting point, but ultimately does not contain all the information needed. You'll learn by reading it, but it is just shy of being a "one stop shop" for all your water - survival needs.

This book shows you numerous ways to save water and stay away from dehydration, how to stay away from bacterial water supplies, water related illness, dysentery, e.coli infection, hepatitis a, cholera, typhoid, symptoms and treatments, creating a water saving plan, storing water, unsafe storage, safe storage, acquiring water from rivers, lakes, ponds, streams & creeks, water pollution, setting up a rainwater harvesting system, purifying water from different ways, making outdoor toilets, human wast management, handling garbage during an emergencys and much much more on water savings, must have for survival peoples, its a best book on treat and store your most vital resource water.

This book exceeded my expectations. Lots of water related information inside and easy to read. I also appreciate the author's down to earth writing style. This was my first introduction to Daisy Luther and from this book I found her website, The Organic Prepper. I've been low-key disaster ready-ing for my whole life and recently realised that water-prepping (the most important resource) had not been high on my mind. This booked helped with that in an accessible (for lower income north American) fashion.

Its a good book to have about water. Easy to read and helpful. Small so it fits in a bag if you are on a hiking trip or in the field.

I liked the clear layout and easily understandable writing style. There is a lot to learn, but I now know enough to have confidence to begin. There's clean water in the soil that we can collect. Filters for water of varying conditions, home-made and otherwise. Because the author had to learn the hard way, from experience, her suggestions are do-able and effective.
