Nuclear War Survival Skills: The Cold War Masterpiece

While it may seem “doom and gloom,” Nuclear War Survival Skills by Cresson Kearny (an Oak Ridge National Laboratory researcher) is based on hard science, not fear-mongering. It is the gold standard for surviving the “unthinkable” using materials found in a typical home.

Why This Book is Unique

Kearny’s focus was on expedient survival. He realized that most people wouldn’t have professional bunkers. This book teaches you:

  • Kearny Fallout Meters: How to build a radiation detector using just a coffee can and foil.
  • Shelter Ventilation: How to build an air pump to keep your family breathing safely underground.
  • Water & Food: How to protect your supplies from radioactive dust.

The Ultimate Technical Manual

This is less of a “read” and more of a “build” manual. It belongs in every serious prepper’s reference library.
