Survival Guide for Beginners by Vitaly Pedchenko consists of 36 short chapters to provide beginners rudimentary information on survival. Each chapter is very short and provides only basic information. The author does provide some product recommendations that may help a person who needs to decide on which product to obtain. While I do not agree with some of the product recommendations it can give the reader a starting point for product research to see which product fits their specific needs.Some of the topics covered in this book include:+ Types of Disasters+ Mental Preparation+ Physical Preparation+ Emergency Supplies+ Bug Out Bag+ Medical Supplies+ Communications+ Home Defense+ Firearms+ Different types of disasters such as: Hurricane, Tornado, Earthquake, Blizzard, Flood, BlackoutOverall Assessment:Survival Guide for Beginners by Vitaly Pedchenko covers a lot of subjects with a basic overview. While there is a wide breadth of information there is definitely a lack of depth. One benefit of this book is that the reader can get a wide overview of important topics to learn. Then it is up to the reader to do further research to gain expertise on these subject areas.
