Knowing the items people will most likely need and want means you can stock up on them, even if you don’t want or need them for your own personal use. It’s like having currency in the bank.A thousand pages could be written about survival and responses to disasters or crises but there is no way that that amount of information could ever be contained in one book let alone inside your head.The key to preparation is to start where it benefits you the most. You wouldn’t need to pack snow chains and ice picks if you lived in the desert would you? No each person is going to have their own opinions on what needs to be prepared for, what supplies need to be kept on hand, and what skills need to be trained for. Preparedness is not a singular path.However, this report gives you an excellent foundation for taking action. One of the mistakes people make is telling themselves that they will start buying items “soon”or “next paycheck” or “next month”.The main problem with this frame of mind is that a disaster doesn’t happen on schedule. That next big quake or F5 tornado could hit much “sooner” than your next paycheck..

In the great oral tradition of the Lakota people, author Joseph M. Marshall III shares the compelling history of a man, a tribe, and a legacy of courage and endurance. Tasunke Witko, or Crazy Horse, as he is often remembered, brought the U. S. Army to its knees in 1876. His valor and leadership elevated him to legendary status among Native American people; in this riveting biography, Joseph Marshall (himself a Lakota Indian) combines firsthand research and a rich oral history to offer a fully-faceted portrait of the spirited warrior and revered hero, and a profound celebration of an enduring culture. When Marshall was a child, his grandfather and great uncles would tell vivid tales of the Battle of Little Bighorn as if the decisive battle had happened only the day before; his research for this book included in-depth, lengthy conversations with elderly storytellers who describe details and perspectives that could only come from firsthand accounts. The Journey of Crazy Horse is a unique opportunity to hear legends of a great man as they have told for generations and rarely shared outside the Native American community.
