Synopsis

Warning sirens are blaring. You have fifteen minutes to evacuate. What will you do?

Cataclysmic events strike sleepy towns and major cities every year. Residents face escaping quickly or perishing in rising waters, raging fires, or other life-threatening conditions. By the time the evacuation starts, it's already too late. Being prepared makes the difference between survival and disaster. Guiding you step by step, Bug Out tells you how to be ready at a second's notice:

—Create an escape plan for where to go and how to get there.

—Pack the perfect bug-out bag for the first seventy-two hours.

—Find food, water, and other necessities outside of civilization.

From the Pacific Coast to the Desert Southwest, the Appalachians to the Atlantic Coast, Bug Out includes detailed information on the best escape locations everywhere in the United States to give you a better chance of surviving the next flood, pandemic, earthquake, or wildfire that may be headed your way.

Goodreads review by Aingeal

Interesting idea taking off from urban centres when disaster strikes. I'm not totally convinced. There is merit to hunkering down in your home until the initial panic has passed.
