Best Seller In Its Amazon Category

The author takes the reader on a journey from his first awareness of the need to prep and survive to his eventual decision to move off grid into the wilderness of Montana and start a bugout homestead. Not a "How To" manual, but more of a journal outlining the events and the readying of the new homestead. With dozens of photographs and detailed explanations of methods, he narrates how he built an 800 square foot cabin with the help of only his wife and kids and a few simple tools. Featuring sections on grey water discharge systems, installing a well pump, how to supply water off-grid, and calculations on how much land is needed and what kinds of food to grow on it and more.

Author Biography

Gordon Blaine is a proud descendant of the Amish. He lives off the grid in the mountains of Montana in a cabin he built with his wife and children. As a former member of the United States military and later as a military contractor, he traveled the United States and the world, but his greatest influences are his father, who instilled in him an appreciation of generosity and integrity, and his mother, who gave him his sense of humor and a love of literature.
