Bayfield resident Dennis Evers has penned the tell-all survival guide, How to Handle a Crisis: Handling Emergencies Even When You’re Terrified.
As an inventor, former police chief and father of nine, Evers, aka “Bones,” has plenty of combat time under his belt. And while he is partial to wearing Hawaiian shirts and cracking jokes, he says preparing for the worst is no laughing matter. “People don’t like to plan for disasters,” he said. “They’d rather see a movie.”
Which isn’t to say some topics covered in the book don’t border on the morbidly entertaining. Our personal favorite: tourniquets and amputations (drawings included.)
More than 1,500 copies of Evers’ book have been sold worldwide, from Africa to Ireland. To get your copy for $9.95 + shipping, visit www.howtohandleacrisis.com

“Skiing is an expensive hobby ... the good resorts range from $70-$100 for one day of skiing,” says the website, noting that doesn’t include skis, lessons or apres drinks. “What’s an aspiring ski bunny to do?”
No tips on how to land the sugar daddy, but we’ve heard the “fake cast” by the fire in the lodge always gets ’em– at least on TV.

Bayfield resident Dennis Evers has penned the tell-all survival guide, How to Handle a Crisis: Handling Emergencies Even When You’re Terrified.
Published in 2011, the book is a “must-have,” meant to offer step-by-step instructions on how to deal with everything form snake bites and earthquakes to biological warfare and nuclear holocaust. Cowritten by Dr. Roberto Silva, the book contains hundreds of protocols and checklists for the quick home reference. However, Evers notes that some protocols, such as “How to Escape a Submerged Vehicle” are better off read ahead of time.
