Who I am

"I did twenty years in the Army and twenty-one on a propane route through these hills, and I hauled fuel through nineteen days of an ice storm to people who had bought the wrong things and never once tried them; everything in these books I've slept out with before I put it on paper."

Hank Dockery · From a man who did twenty years in the Army, twenty-one on a propane route, and nineteen days of an ice storm. · Eleven acres on a ridge in the Ozark hills, with Donna.

Why you can trust it

1

Tested before it's written

Everything in these books I've slept out with at the camp before I put it on paper. What failed at my own place in 2009, the generator that wouldn't carry the well pump and the saw with last year's fuel in it, is in here too.

2

Real prices, one man's receipts

Every item has what I paid, where, and roughly when. Nobody pays me to name a thing, and nothing is in here that I haven't bought and used myself.

3

Nothing in here can hurt you

Your county's order and the weather service's warning come first, every time. No weapons, no medicine, no gas or wiring repair; that's the class and the licensed man. And if it's not for you, 30 days, money back, no questions.

Frequently asked questions

Which one do I start with?

If you only want one, Ready for Anything. It's the plan for the whole house, in the order things fail, and it's the one I'd hand a man starting from nothing. If it's the food you're worried about, The Full Shelf does that job to the end. If it's the first three days and the bag by the door, The 72 Hours. If you want to be done with it, the set is all three for $37.

What am I actually getting?

PDFs. You pay once, and inside a minute there's an email with the download. Read them on a phone, a tablet or a laptop, or print the pages you want on ordinary letter paper at home. The type's set big, 14 point, for reading glasses and a flashlight. The cards at the end of the chapters are made to print and put on a nail.

What's the difference between the big book and the two small ones?

The big book is the plan. Every subject, at the depth of what, why, in what order and what it cost, so you know what a ready house is. The two small ones are jobs, done to the end: the food, shelf by shelf, and the first three days, hour by hour. The big book carries one chapter on each of those and points you at the book that does the work. Nothing's written twice.

Is this a bunker thing?

No. It's a plain house, a truck, two people and the hardware store, the farm store and the dollar store. Nothing in these books asks you to buy a bunker, a year of buckets or a pile of gear. Most of the steps cost under $30, and every one has the price next to it and where I paid it. Nineteen days without power, and it was never the houses with the most gear that were fine.

You did twenty years. Is there anything in here about weapons?

No. I did my twenty years, and that is not what these books are for. There's a part on the house that's too much trouble, and it's locks, lights, gravel, a routine and a phone, and it ends at the sheriff. Nothing about hunting either. I fish.

What if it's not for me?

30 days, full refund, no questions. Reply to the email the book came in and the money comes back. You keep the files.

Is any of this medical, gas or electrical advice?

No. I say what I've done at my place and what it cost. The gas man does the gas, the electrician does the transfer switch, the nurse line and 911 do the rest, and your county and the National Weather Service are the ones to follow. When they say leave, leave.

I wrote these for the night the screen is dead.

When the power goes, the phone goes with it, and so does this page. Print them, put them on the shelf, and the plan's there in the dark whether I am or not.
