Review: Simple, Good Advice, but Missing Some Basic Information
Rating: 4 out of 5

The book starts with information about how to purchase items for your pantry without breaking the bank. There are tips for using coupons and information about general sales cycles and the best times of year to purchase certain types of food items.The book then oddly moves into a list of survival tools including a survival knife, sewing kit, compass, and more items that I couldn't really reconcile with the book title. Then, without a new header, the list then turns into a list of food items that should be stored. It then moves on to non-food items that should be stored in the pantry and seeds and water.After a section on choosing a survival knife the book is wrapped up with a boatload of recipes.The book seems to bounce around quite a bit and could benefit from some additional organization.While there were a few small tips for food storage sprinkled in the lists, the book could definitely use a section dedicated to food storage methods and containers.Thank you for making the book available for free!
