One of the major presuppositions of the book, Return to Order,
is that we are facing a crisis that will seriously affect the nation.
To use the book’s opening metaphor, our situation is like that of a ship
facing a threatening storm.
The natural tendency is to take measures and especially stock up on
supplies. People sense the essential need to have some degree of
self-sufficiency just in case something happens. Still others feel the
need to withdraw from society in the hopes of avoiding the problem all
together. Yet others are so overwhelmed by the vastness of the crisis or
the threat of big government that they simply don’t know what to do.
Several readers have asked if there is a Return to Order perspective on how to prepare for the storm.
