The Winter Survival Handbook: 252 Ways to Beat the Cold

well written

For those who have commented on our antifreeze tip - I thank you so much for your concern for the environment and our companion animals. I know for a fact that everyone involved in the production of this book loves their pets (and yours too), and we want every one of them to be safe and happy. The section that seems to be creating confusion for a few people is a section on leaving your home vacant and without heat for the winter. There I recommend using antifreeze or rubbing alcohol in the toilet to keep it from freezing and shattering. I stand by my statement, as my family has used this trick successfully for years. It's important to note that there are several brands of pet-safe and environmentally safe antifreeze on the market. Additionally, the book was very clear that this technique is for an unoccupied home - so no pets should have access to these treated toilets. Since this book was written with the intention of safely guiding you through winter, it would be beneficial for readers to hear how the book fared as a survival guide and rated accordingly.Thanks - the author.
