With the loss of 19 firefighters in an Arizona wildfire earlier in 2013, the topic of wildfire survival is a topic of conversation in many places these days. Wildfire Survival is a must have for anyone in a wildfire prone area, providing concise and useful information on wildfires, how to prepare, how to respond and how to recover. 
Every year across our Nation, people lose their homes due to wildfires that often begin unnoticed. These fires are usually triggered by lightning or accidents and spread incredibly quickly, igniting brush, trees, and homes. Those homes fortunate enough to survive a wildfire, often do so because their owners were prepared. Based on international protocols, Wildfire Survival focuses on what people can do before, during and after a wildlife to protect themselves and their property. Also included in each guide are smartphone QR codes that link to the websites of various emergency services agencies. Laminated for durability, this portable guide is an ideal source of quick and accurate information. Made in the USA.

Zoologist Jim Kavanagh has made a career out of introducing novices to plants, animals, the sciences and world cultures. In addition to creating over 500 simplified nature guides, he has also authored guides to languages, cities and outdoor skills. An avid traveler and backpacker, Kavanagh’s path has taken him around the world to many remote destinations including the upper Amazon, Africa, Australia, and the Arctic Circle (and this is just the As). He is also the author of a series of state-specific guides to common species and natural attractions and a children's book on evolution. With 650+ titles in print and 6.5 million copies sold, Waterford Press publishes the largest line of folding-format reference guides in the industry.
