Hurricane Recovery: the Peoples' Village Plan Gordon Swanson

This is a plan for disaster recovery where the survivors are the key part of a swift and low cost repair of the damage. It is not a technical work such that everyone can read it and enjoy a few hours of learning. It begins in the future when you listen in to a mayor's up date from his disaster recovery team feeling that the recovery is proceeding better they had hoped. From this, you take a short trip through a disaster with the author, wife and their small dog. This starts when you are rescued and ends when you are leaving to live in your rebuilt house. More information is provided on how the Peoples' Village Plan can work and the preparation prior to a disaster to get ready. This is all summed up with a way to modify the plan to repair Katrina, and similar Gulf Coast disasters where people are still waiting for help. You don't have to be in a disaster zone to get some good from this book. You can learn how to improve your life and those around you by living a different kind of life. A life that can bring you more friends and security then you now consider possible. Don't forget your friends as they can be helped by this book. If they can not afford to buy the book; send, or lend them yours. I won't care as it can help them. Besides, everyone needs something new to read, and received from a friend, it may make their day.
