This is the new updated and revised 8th edition of the LDS Preparedness Manual for 2012, celebrating it's 15th aniversary! This new edition includes significant new material never previously included in past editions and has DOUBLED the total content to over 500 pages! Please Note: The contents of this booklet are intended to assist individuals and families in coping with emergency preparations. However, final decisions on preparation for actions taken during an emergency are the sole responsibility of individuals. No one knows your needs or can take care of you better than you can-nor does anyone else have that responsibility. Information and examples contained within this booklet are provided for illustration and advice only. Therefore, no liability is assumed by the Editor or any of the Authors for the use or misuse of any information or products contained in this publication. A special "LDS Authorized" edition of this book is available to Stakes and Wards upon written request from the Stake President or Ward Bishop that contains significant additional LDS copyrighted material not contained in this public version. This book is NOT an original work. Rather, it is a compilation of many different author's works that have been gathered from the public domain of the Internet over the course of many years. These articles have been bound together and are presented here to simplify your access to them. The LDS Preparedness manual contains over 130 IN-DEPTH articles on food storage and general Preparedness. The Amazon "Look Inside and Kindle" features will be active shortly!
