Eddie Swartzentruber was born and raised in one of the strictest Old Order Amish communities.

For the Swartzentrubers, riding in cars is prohibited, except in a medical emergency. They avoid the use of electricity and indoor plumbing altogether. Many other common devices and technologies you take for granted are also disallowed for being deemed too worldly, including stuff like Velcro or bicycles.

But that does not mean this community hasn’t found and invented new ways of doing things. Before leaving the community, Eddie had the unique opportunity to witness all of these first-hand, learning the projects and skills that make the Amish self-sufficient and prepared for any crisis that will hit America.

Eddie married a beautiful woman and built a life for himself in the outside world, but he never forgot what he’d experienced during his “Amish Years”.

And seeing how soft and dependent the rest of the world has become, he’s decided to share these Amish secrets for the first time ever.

The first gift you’ll receive is called How to Outlive an EMP the Amish Way. There’s no denying that when it comes to a long-term blackout, the Amish are among the most prepared simply because they don’t rely on complex electronics or electricity like the rest of us do. And you’ll already know a lot about how to survive an EMP by reading The Amish Ways.

But this disaster will bring a unique set of challenges that go far beyond not being able to refrigerate your food. An EMP will spell the end of modern society, and in its aftermath, you’ll need the step-by-step survival plan that this book provides.

It will show you what to do day by day after the collapse as well as how to make your house invisible to looters, how to hide your water reserves and filter water off grid, enhanced security measures, ingenious ways to communicate in a blackout, plus dozens of vital DIY projects like the Amish graywater system or the biomass stove, just to name a few.

The second gift is Anti-Looter Traps That You Should Make on Your Property.

This will show you exactly how to build and install the most effective traps for stopping intruders. You cannot be on guard 24/7. Once you have these in your backyard and around the house, you’ll be able to relax knowing that your family and stockpile are safe even as you sleep. These traps are especially designed for looters trying to break into your home in a crisis when there will be no more 911 to call.

The third gift you’ll receive is called DIY Projects from the 1900s.

The Amish aren’t the only ones to have thrived thanks to ingenious DIY projects that require no electricity. At the beginning of the last century, most of America did not have power. This book will show you the projects our great-grandparents had on their property back then. And most importantly, it will provide exact blueprints and lists of materials needed to build each one on your own property to become more self-sufficient.

That’s because the Amish don’t depend on supermarkets, pharmacies, hospitals, cars, computers, phones, or any of the dozens of modern conveniences we take for granted. Most of these things will vanish in the first hours following a disaster. With The Amish Ways, you’ll be able to not only survive the aftermath, but thrive.

• You’ll grow your own nutritious food hidden from sight and know how to preserve it for years without refrigeration;
• You’ll source your own remedies from nature’s apothecary instead of fighting vicious thugs for that last box of pills in a devastated pharmacy;
• You’ll still be able to heat and cool your home and take a hot shower even when the grid is down and not a drop of water is flowing from the tap.

The Amish don’t owe anyone a thing, and their lives are squarely in their hands. And while the things they produce can help them survive for years on end, they are also fetching them a very good price right now.

Not to mention that by following the Amish way, you’ll be able to lower some of your utility bills, save money, and stick it to greedy companies that’ll bleed you dry if you only let them.

Unfortunately, that is still the case for tens of millions of people living from one paycheck to the next. But it is not the case for anyone inside the Amish fold.

This book is not just a survival guide; it’s a precious legacy for future generations of your family.

The Amish Ways will help them during their own hour of need. What I’ve saved inside is truly timeless. And there’s no doubt it will keep working well into the future.

While technology may change and evolve and we become more dependent on it, the basic survival needs of a human being won’t change.

And with The Amish Ways, your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will be able to cover these needs, no matter what future calamity they face.
