Desert Rat's Handbook

Where will you be when the lights go out again, when there is a terrorist strike, or when the markets are empty because of a transportation strike? Are you tired of waiting in gridlock for hours, inhaling toxic exhaust fumes while headed for a job that you can’t stand? Are you in hurricane, flood, earthquake or tornado territory? This book will tell you how to seclude yourself in a desert hideaway—far beyond the reach of developers, retirement communities, and resorts-- where you will know the dangers to watch out for and can be happy—even if you live off the grid—wearing comfortable old clothes and driving an old pickup.Burke, Ruth is the author of 'Desert Rat's Handbook', published 2004 under ISBN 9781418474607 and ISBN 1418474606.
