    About this ebook

    A reedited and reformatted beloved classic story about one prepper’s apocalyptic journey and the continuing adventure of going home after a disaster. A solar storm has just unexpectedly hit Earth’s magnetosphere causing an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) event. An emergency manager visiting Atlanta, Georgia on a job interview must find his way back home penniless and unprepared after this Carrington Event stranded him far away from his vehicle and his beloved "bug out bag". With over one hundred eighty miles to go to get to his destination in Alabama, David must now let his street smarts and survival skills kick in as food and water becomes scarce and societal breakdown proceeds at an unrelenting pace. An interesting and often funny cast of characters and survivors from the Deep South helps the displaced Prepper on his way as he attempts to share his survival and preparedness knowledge of how to make do with common items in order to live for another day. Ultimately, he acquires an old crank farm tractor undamaged by the solar flare and heads for home on a car-littered interstate. This book includes the three books of the Prepper trilogy and a bonus novelette “Stewart’s Bug Out” that continues the story and adds more water purification skills for the reader and survivalist..
