Diary of a Kudzu Salesman — Ron Foster

Book two the " Prepper Reconstruction" series. The characters from the classic Prepper Trilogy have moved from their survival retreat on the lake and have taken up city living in one of the FEMA reconstruction towns. The government is attempting to jump start the economy once more after a solar storm took down the grid and the economy ten long years ago. Politics and a religious cult leader who is a decedent of a Kudzu salesman threaten to upset the survivor's plans to restart their lives as the stresses of rejoining civilization mount. This book contains several recipes and uses for Kudzu that help the community contend with the calamity. Perhaps no other part of the natural environment is more closely identified with the South than this invasive and fast growing vine and evidence of everything that is wrong with big government.
